Money, Manure, and Maintenance were the three ingredients necessary for successful gardens, according to Marian Coffin, a pioneer landscape architect in the first half of the 20th century. The book contains many illustrations of Coffin's garden designs, including Delaware estates: Winterthur, Mt. Cuba, and Gibraltar, as well as the King's Garden at Ft. Ticonderoga, and other estate gardens and campuses.

Marian Coffin, Pioneer Landscape Architect (1876-1957) said that Money, Manure & Maintenance were the three ingredients for successful gardens. Coffin, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Class of 1904, was one of the first women Fellows of the American Society of Landscape Architects. Her most well known designs are Winterthur for Henry Francis duPont, The University of Delaware, and the King's Garden at Fort Ticonderoga. Photographs and her drawn landscape plans illustrate the text. Twenty-first century gardeners have much to learn from Coffin's knowledge of plants and design.
