    The Gardener’s Mindset | Stephen Orr Book Talk

    In The Gardener’s Mindset, Stephen Orr, garden writer and former editor-in-chief of Better Homes and Gardens, examines the restorative power of gardening through a collection of essays and photographs while revealing his own challenges in the garden and offering advice on growing plants and vegetables at home. Inspired by the great tradition of twentieth-century garden essay collections by writers such as Vita Sackville-West, Elizabeth Lawrence, and Henry Mitchell, Orr helps readers understand not just how to garden but how to think about it. Alongside gorgeous photographs and easy projects that range from cultivating a color scheme to building a wildlife habitat, Orr delves into his personal gardening journey, pulling from the various gardens he and his husband have created over the past decades.
