Exploring the art of composing a garden over all 4 seasons, this book explains how to predict the pace, patterns and dimensions of plant growth, and provides the reader with instructions on how to manage a range of planting schemes season by season. The author describes aspects of plant colour and texture, giving numerous examples of plants that work well together, flowering simultaneously or successively to produce compositions that are constantly satisfying to the eye. Charts and plants are used throughout the book to offer detailed planting suggestions and maintenance checklists.
