Yes that's it....It's a little book and just the first couple of chapters
are about the Medieval and Renaissance periods.  It has a section on
pompeiian murals as well.  Hope you like it... (Now I'll have to go home
and reread it to make sure it says whatI remember it says....)  I think
it's be really cool to research and do "topiary" showing distinct period
examples and styles....
It really changes looking at Italian Renaissance paintings.  I find myself
looking in the backgrounds at things....

It's true!  We should have a sympathetic crises network for favorite plants
dying.  I was really fond of the passionflower.   The department chairman
had left a flower from his collection of passionflowers and after much
touble and great patience I rooted it.  It was doing really great until the
heat hit it.  Oh well........Next year maybe I can get another cutting...
