EDITORS COMMENTS
This reproduction of a plan of an orchard and garden, created by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston between 1915 and 1925, offers a glimpse into the idyllic world of early 20th-century horticulture. The print is a thoughtful reinterpretation of an older design from "A New Orchard and Garden" by English cleric and gardening writer William Lawson, first published in 1618. The meticulously detailed plan is annotated with various elements of the garden, each denoted by a letter. A series of squares marked 'A' represent the locations for trees, with gardens and ornaments situated in the spaces between. The trees are to be planted 20 yards apart (B). The garden layout includes a 'knot' (C), a kitchen garden (D), a bridge (E), a conduit (F), stairs (G), walks set with great wood (H), and walks set with great wood around the orchard (I). Additional features include a mount (M), which can be created by forcing earth and surrounding it with quick (a type of willow) and boughs of trees. A stillhouse (N) and a good standing for bees (O) are also included if the garden has a house. Lastly, if the river runs by the door and under the mount, it will add to the overall pleasure of the garden (P). This beautiful reproduction not only showcases the timeless allure of gardening but also serves as a testament to the enduring influence of William Lawson's gardening principles, as captured through the lens of Frances Benjamin Johnston.
