Filled with intensely saturated colors, vivid plant combinations, and images of bold garden hardscaping, this volume guides beginning and more sophisticated readers through the process of thinking about, and creating, stimulating landscape designs. Examples are drawn from some of the country's best gardens, from Wave Hill in the Bronx to Ganna Walska's amazing California garden, Lotusland. Annotation c.
