Pages are clean and entirely unmarked throughout, with no stains or marks of any kind. Second edition, revised and expanded. Published by Fulcrum Publishing, Golden, Colorado, 2010. Lauren Springer Ogden is one of America's most original gardeners, often described as America's answer to Beth Chatto for her insistence on working with difficult conditions rather than against them, choosing tough, regionally attuned plants over high-maintenance ones better suited to milder climates. After gardening professionally for several years on both sides of the Atlantic, she earned a master's degree in horticulture from Penn State and moved west. Her writing and photography have appeared regularly in American gardening publications and have been featured in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Nature. First published in 1994, The Undaunted Garden was a wake-up call for gardeners, designers, and horticulturists, demonstrating how gorgeous, water-smart gardens could be created in the difficult climates and soils of the interior West. The book sparked a regional movement toward lush-looking gardens built from tough, drought-tolerant, regionally attuned plants. This revised second edition includes more than 370 new full-colour photographs, 100 portraits of underused, exceptional plants, expanded information on drought-tolerant and deer-resistant plants, and insights and lessons from Lauren's three personal gardens.
