The Garden of Japan: A Year’s Diary of Its Flowers is a book written by Francis Taylor Piggott and published in 1896. It is a detailed account of the author’s experiences exploring the flora of Japan over the course of a year. The book is divided into twelve chapters, one for each month of the year, and each chapter describes the flowers and plants that are in bloom during that time. Piggott’s writing is descriptive and poetic, and he provides a wealth of information about the various species of flowers and plants he encounters. He also includes anecdotes about his travels and the people he meets along the way, giving readers a glimpse into the culture and customs of Japan during that time period. The book is illustrated with beautiful black and white drawings of the flowers and plants, as well as photographs of the landscapes and gardens Piggott visited. Overall, The Garden of Japan is a delightful and informative read for anyone with an interest in botany, gardening, or Japanese culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
