Product Details

Product Description

From Amazon

Combining lovely scrapbook pages with a wealth of inspiration, recipes, and design suggestions, the Spring Notebook from Carolyne Roehm is the last seasonal title in her series. With a gorgeous matte cover disguising a practical spiral binding, you can refer to this frequently, and for years to come, without affecting its sturdiness one bit.

Separate areas focus on individual types of blooms--all the spring classics are here, including daffodils, tulips, pansies, and peonies. Discussion is mainly about the arranging and choosing of plants--for details on such practicalities as pest control or bulb rot, look elsewhere. Even a few favorite seasonal edibles are addressed--recipes for rhubarb, strawberries, and asparagus will have your mouth watering, and most, such as simple Rhubarb Bread, are straightforward and without a lot of extra steps. In all sections, the photographs are lush and light-filled, and seem evenly mixed between close-ups full of incredible detail and larger shots that provide a sense of a plant's overall effect in a garden. Detailed lists of possible plant choices are given for each category, limited to the author's favorites from her own gardens--with 3,000 tulips in the world to choose from, you'll be glad for the restraint Roehm shows in including only 62. A delightful way of containing all of spring's bounty into one book, this scrapbook will provide you with one special place for keeping your ideas, notes, and memories of the season. --Jill Lightner

    4.0 out of 5 stars Feast for the eyes, May 7 2000
    By A Customer
    This review is from: Carolyne Roehm's Spring Notebook (Spiral-bound)
    These books are enjoyable to look at, quite beautifully photographed. Very relaxing to browse through. However, they are short on horticultural details for the plants that are featured, so one should not buy them for that kind of information. The recipes are good, the floral arrangements are inspiring. The format of focusing on one season at a time makes them a nice primer to help you think about what you want to accomplish or gear up for in the next three months, which is nice from a planning perspective. The ability to write notes in the spaces provided is a plus for this sort of planning. And Ms. Roehm gives photo credits to those employees who make her lifestyle possible by doing a lot of the work in her garden and home, unlike some well-known domestic divas.

    In her new book "Spring Notebook" Carolyne Roehm has outdone herself again. If you love gardening, flowers and entertaining this is a inspiring and breathtaking book! The pictures are beautiful and the book is packed full of lots of gardening tips and recipes. The book is done in a spiral bound format and there are folders to keep your own clippings, gardening ideas and recipes in. There are a list of sources in the back of the book! This is truly a enjoyable book that you will want to keep forever.

    This review is from: Carolyne Roehm's Spring Notebook (Spiral-bound)
    At first glance I fell in love with this gardening set by Carolyne Roehm, a set of four books, one for each season. I would say they are a feast for your eyes, and a help for your garden to boot. I love the additional sections for your own notes!
