xxiv THE FORMAL GARDEN IN ENGLAND
in detail, is an entirely distinct one, which has
been confused with that of horticulture, and
finally superseded by it. Horticulture stands
to garden design much as building does to
architecture ; the two are connected, but very far
from being identical. This book has been
written entirely from the stand-point of the
designer, and therefore contains little or no
reference to the actual methods of horticulture.
The illustrations have been drawn by Mr.
Thomas, the letterpress has been written by
Mr. Blomfield from materials collected con-
jointly. The writer begs to thank Mr. Seeley
for permission to reprint passages from an
article on " Gardens," contributed by him to The
Portfolio, December 1889.
A list of the works referred to will be found
in Appendix III.
