An article by Lynden Miller in Fine Gardening: “The Only Shrubs You Need to Grow”
Lynden is one of the best gardeners around. She redesigned the Ladies Border at the NY Botanical Garden, the gardens in Bryant Park and the ones on campus at Columbia. And the Conservatory Garden in Central Park, with Pepe Maynard of Bedford. Lynden gardens in Conn.
I’ve heard her speak a couple of times. She’s a great advocate for public and urban gardens. Her son, Gifford, was president of the City Council, then ran for mayor.

Bill Cary grew up in Louisville, Ky. His gardening was limited to growing parsley and impatiens on the windowsill of Manhattan walkups until the mid-1990s when he bought a rundown old chicken farm on 8 acres in the Hudson Valley. Now he spends his weekends chasing deer, hacking away at invasive shrubs and vines and wondering why he doesn`t have more meadow and less lawn.
