There are times in a gardener's life when what we want to do and
what we can do are at odds. Our knees and backs may be complaining,
our energy isn’t what it was – yet our desire to get our hands
in the dirt is as strong as ever. Or maybe we’ve downsized to a
much smaller outdoor space that doesn’t look promising at all.
What to do? In Late Bloomer, garden designer Jan Coppola Bills
shows us how to successfully rethink our approach to gardening as
we age. The author is a second-half-of-life gardener who helps her
many friends and clients achieve easy care, low cost, eco-friendly,
simple and beautiful gardens. It’s all about maintaining a
joyful, healthful connection with the soil – but without the
toil. Late Bloomer is part garden philosophy and part on-the-ground
strategies and tips from the author and expert gardeners across the
U.S. With color photos on almost every page, this inviting and
practical book is organized around the four tenets of the Late
Bloomer philosophy: Simplicity. Beauty and Harmony. Comfort and
Ease. Relaxation and Letting Go.
