Chatting books online Day 10. At this beautiful time of year lots of folks (in normal years) turn their attention to visiting beautiful gardens . While you may not be getting out these days you can still see Afton Villa’s beauty preserved in this lovely book by Mrs. Genevieve Trimble .
Afton Villa documents Trimble’s decades-long restoration project while providing a history of the original owners and paying tribute to the other people who contributed to its rebirth. Focusing on preservation, Trimble reveals how the garden’s original footprint survived as well as how she thoughtfully introduced new flora into the terraced landscape, including the foundation ruins of the house, under the guidance of landscape architect Neil G. Odenwald. With steep learning curves and devastating setbacks, including hurricane destruction, each milestone in the recovery of Afton Villa marked a triumph of collaborative will over adversity.
