Description

Explore the deep connections between gardening and social identity in A Taste for Gardening: Classed and Gendered Practices. Published by Routledge, this work provides a scholarly analysis of how gardening serves as a site where cultural identities are constructed through consumption and aesthetic choices. By examining how gardeners make decisions based on their class and gender positions, this book offers a unique look at the relationship between media interest in horticulture and social standing. The text uses ethnographic data from real encounters with gardeners to map out a typology of gardening taste. It investigates how the way plants are chosen, planted, and cared for functions as a mode of communication tied to personal identity. This book is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in landscape architecture, sociology, and the cultural meaning of outdoor spaces. It moves beyond simple plant care to examine the symbolic ways people use their gardens to express who they are in a changing social landscape.
