The Art Of Fine Gardening

$59.95
The long-awaited debut book on Craig Bergmann, pre-eminent designer of traditional gardens along the North Shore of Chicago

For more than four decades, Craig Bergmann has been recognized for intertwining design, horticulture, and architecture, establishing a true dialogue between the garden and the architectural site. Revered as a plantsman, Bergmann layers his designs with vibrant blooms and textured foliage. The Art of Fine Gardening features twenty gardens that span his career and are located in the North Shore of Chicago. A special chapter is dedicated to the Gardens at 900, the historic estate designed by architect David Adler, that he developed and reimagined as a series of lush private garden rooms with hedges, towering topiary, perennial borders, and interspersed with classical figures and ornament.
About Our Flowers

Every FLWR arrangement is individually designed with the best flowers available that day. We handpick unusual varieties, seasonal favorites and exceptional stems for their color, form and movement rather than working from fixed recipes. Your arrangement will reflect the palette and feeling pictured here, while the flowers themselves will be particular to the season and the moment.
SIzing

Our arrangements are generously sized and designed for consistency at every price point. Our $100 arrangement is perfectly suited as a centerpiece for a four-person dining table. As you move up in size, expect a noticeably larger, fuller arrangement with more flowers and greater impact
Care

A little care goes a long way. Keep the vase topped up with fresh water, and change the water every couple days whenever possible. Keep your flowers away from direct sunlight, heating and air-conditioning vents, and other sources of extreme heat or cold. Remove individual blooms as they fade and enjoy watching your arrangement change as it ages.

A Sense of Scale

Every arrangement is unique. These examples offer a general sense of what to expect at different budgets.
