In this book the author proposes visits to eighteen evocative gardens in Buenos Aires designed over the past few decades. This fascinating tour takes us to the park surrounding the presidential residence in Olivos, the house once owned by Victoria Ocampo on the banks of the river, and the San Isidro park where legendary actress Lola Membrives once strolled at weekends.

The owner’s comments and the accompanying photographs highlight the motivations behind the design and care of their gardens. In addition, the book contains useful information on various aspects of Argentine horticulture.
