Publisher's Synopsis
Gardens are a playground: they are a dynamic outlet for creativity; a place to design, build and plant. This book concentrates on the inevitable rewards of designing a garden space with a variety of plants that will perform as a synchronised team - giving excitement, colour and, most importantly, atmosphere. The plants are grouped thoughtfully so they can 'show off' their best attributes and can reveal their real personalities.All aspects of designing a modern garden are covered in this comprehensive book, along with a vast choice of plant combinations, describing the individuals and presenting convincing reasons for their being placed together.ABOUT THE AUTHOR:Neil Ross, an experienced gardener and designer, both in the United Kingdom and New Zealand, currently writes for the New Zealand Herald's Canvas and New Zealand Gardener magazine.
