Secrets of Monet's Garden
Secrets of Monet's Garden: Bringing the Beauty of Monet's Style to Your Own Garden by Derek Fell
An analysis of what Monet planted and why, and what you can do like it, even if you don't have a dedicated team of ten gardeners, a backhoe to deal with exhausted beds, several greenhouses solely to raises flowers, and all that land. Some aspects, he points out, can be duplicated in little as planters, such as color scheme.
Also comments on the art. For instance, Monet, despite the rumors, did not dislike hybrids; all his waterlilies were hybrids. He didn't like double flowers because they were less translucent.
