A Journey to Nine Islands
Accompanied by charming and accessible text, the floral centerfolds of A Journey to Nine Islands invite the reader to participate in the world of the Chicago Botanic Garden – one of the nation's most visited public gardens and a preeminent center for learning and plant science.
This remarkable volume showcases these lush and extraordinary gardens with 96 pages of beautifully reproduced full-colour photography – capturing images from Chicago Botanic Garden sites as diverse as the English Oak Meadow, the Rose Garden, the Prairie, and the exquisite Heritage Garden. The breathtaking images featured in A Journey to Nine Islands represent only a small portion of the stunning blooms on view year-round at the Botanic Garden – a magisterial landscape that changes with the seasons, welcoming plants like the late-blooming sawtooth sunflower in the early autumn and the panicle hydrangea in the heat of midsummer.
