PRAISE for Heaven is a Garden

“Jan Johnsen touches my soul with her insights on gardens, as well as on living life. You’ll be touched too as she teaches you how to create a divine, unhurried landscape with simplicity, sanctuary and delight.”

~ Jim Peterson, Publisher, Garden Design Magazine

“In Heaven is a Garden we take a voyage into the sublime heart of nature’s delights. Jan Johnsen guides us all into a flock of colors, heavenly textures, and the eternal wheel of the cosmos streaming into us from head to toe. To walk in Jan’s gardens is to capture nature by seeing more than you can remember and remembering more than you can see.”

~ Travis L. Price III, FAIA, architect, author of The Mythic Modern

“Mixing little known, fascinating facts with a sense of wonder about the environment, Jan Johnsen guides us through proven techniques to infuse serenity in our gardens. She begins with an explanation of three simple words: simplicity, sanctuary, and delight – the basis for creating gardens that inspire us and provide a place for reflection. With so many other good suggestions in this book as well, anyone who designs gardens should have this book on their resource shelf.”
