Description
Many of us dream about the perfect garden but have difficulty achieving that special balance of structure and balance. Garden, written by a professional landscape gardener, describes the process from the dream to the important first steps. Great gardens are as much about shape and structure as they are about planting; your first step towards the perfect garden could easily be building or masonry work, not a trip to the garden centre. Using twelve of Tony Murrell s beautiful gardens, ranging from a tiny inner-city oasis of style to a French Provincial garden, this book will appeal to a broad range of modern gardeners who want to enhance their lives with a wonderful garden. Includes: bull; Family Garden bull; Sub-tropical Garden bull; French Provincial Garden bull; Contemporary Garden bull; Sunken Garden Illustrated with beautiful photographs by Karen Ellis, Garden is full of practical advice about costs, seeking professional help, making the most of your local garden centre.
