I came into this thread late. Have you read Beverly Nichols? While it is
the British trends he covers, it might give you some wonderful insight.

Delightful books and well worth reading but Nichols' garden books were about
gardens that predate the time frame mentioned by the OP.

I was thinking of Gardens Open Today as being a "60's" garden...but I could
be wrong


Hmmm - I have a whole bunch of "garden memoir" books.. Maybe I need to go do
some re-reading.. All of the ones I've kept were such happy reads. Dumped
"Green Thoughts" - while the author wrote well and informatively, there was
something about her that just rubbed be the wrong way.
