Pleasure Principles: An Almanac from the Garden
Pleasure Principles is part garden almanac, part field guide, part art book, and part love letter to Mother Nature. Across more than 400 pages, it moves month by month through the year, offering stories, recipes, rituals, and practical garden wisdom for anyone longing to put down their phone, get their hands dirty, and pay closer attention to the world around them.
Filled with planting and harvesting guides, fresh seasonal recipes, monthly rituals, personal stories, scent explorations, herbal remedies, mythology, botanical history, and garden tasks, the book invites readers to experience nature with all their senses. To capture the intoxicating scent of Jasmine. To plant for birds, bees, and butterflies. To infuse Honey with Honeysuckle. To make a calming Lavender dream spray. To string Marigolds into a garland, then make pasta with what is left behind.
With hundreds of original photographs and more than 20 specially commissioned oil paintings of the Flamingo garden by John Regan, Pleasure Principles is as visually rich as it is practical. Gathered from life on a Los Angeles hillside and shaped by the people, plants, and rituals of the Estate, it is an invitation to live more slowly, notice more deeply, and rediscover the radical pleasures still waiting for us in the natural world.
