"A handy guide to a garden you can raise without a corresponding increase in your blood pressure..handsome and informative...."
- Metropolitan Home, Dec. 2009
"A garden can be a consuming passion—at least until you feel it consuming you. When Val Easton found herself in that spot, she knew it was time to move on, this time to a gem of a low-maintenance garden she made for herself. It kept her passion for gardening alive and spawned a terrific book, The New Low-Maintenance Garden."
- Sunset's "Fresh Dirt" blog
"This book is an invaluable addition to the garden library – destined to be a classic for many years to come."
- Garden Design Online
Paperback copies of "The New Low Maintenance Garden" are in bookstores for $19.95, Timber Press is out of hardback copies ($29.95) but you can buy them on online at HomeStyle Book Club; more hardbacks will hopefully be available in bookstores early in 2010.
Val, How wonderful that soon we all will be able to read your new book! Wish I could make it to Seattle for the unveiling.
And I've enjoyed your descriptions of the Late Show Garden. I attended the preview party on my way to the Monterey Jazz Festival and Carmel. The setting and growers were fantastic. Plus the Late Show gardens and designers were captivating-- definitely world class. We could share photos. Do tell all on the blog about the icewall that no one could keep their hands off! It was a treat for our ears with its creaking and squeaking and the accompanying garden and message was so effective and beautiful.
