Fabulous Book!!

I am studying to become a Landscape Designer and this book has alota fabulous ideas in it! I highly recommend adding it to your library.

Lots of ideas!

I like this book because it gives gardeners lots of ideas for various garden designs, in all shapes and sizes. There are designs for narrow walkways, curved entrances, large yards, small yards, front yards, back yards, boulevards, and with varying themes: by colour; by function (e.g. to attract butterflies or hummingbirds); by plant types (e.g. all shrubs, herbs, cutting flowers, fragrant plants). While not every design is suitable for every Zone, there is a good selection for each Zone, and where possible the authors provide substitutions to expand the applicable zones for a design. The book also includes botanical as well as common names for all plants listed in the coloured watercolour drawings. All in all, this is a very well written and useful book, for gardeners of all levels.
