"What a fab book! I am an experienced gardener although in recent times I have concentrated more on hard landscaping and really not paid much attention to what I put where and added things more or less on a whim; it sort of worked, but not always! In my new garden of just a few months I have all the hard landscaping I need, but a planting scheme that needs reviving with not really too much idea of where to start. This is a great book for this situation, good detail of plants and plans, lots of ideas, easy to follow and vey engaging."
"This colourful book presents lots of blueprints for different styles of garden design. Each design is beautifully and consistently laid out. With lots of ideas, plans and sketches and plentiful suggestions for plant types appropriate for each design. There are also suggestions as to how to tweak the presented plans for added variety." - Amazon Reviews.
