Judith M. Taylor's Women and Gardens highlights the depth and breadth of women's influence on gardens and landscapes in the last two hundred years and profiles many unknown or intentionally ignored facts concerning the roles of women in gardening and their contributions to horticultural science. Divided into eight chapters, Taylor explores the history of women in horticulture, landscape design, and ornamental plant breeding from the Victorian to today.
Judith M. Taylor is the author of The Olive Tree in California: History of an Immigrant Tree; The Global Migrations of Ornamental Plants: How the World Got into Your Garden; Tangible Memories: Californians and Their Gardens, 1800–1950; and Visions of Loveliness: Great Flower Breeders of the Past.
