From a pioneer of the New Perennial movement, My Garden showcases the practice and process behind Jaqueline van der Kloet's leading-edge, naturalistic planting experimentations, rooted in her site of experimentation for the past forty years: her home garden. Jacqueline has established a design process emphasizing naturalized bulbs and other plants that intermingle in every month of the year, supporting biodiversity and embracing the natural tendencies of plants.

With an elegance admired the world over, each corner of van der Kloet's garden reflects an important aspect of her creative process, sharing down-to-earth wisdom from her own little piece of paradise. Enter into this stunning, innovative garden and discover:

-Snapshots of specific spots in her garden, documenting the subtle shifts in each plant as it traverses the seasons' rhythms
-A glimpse into the conceptual frameworks for many of her international projects
