Secluded, scentred and softly planted, a romantic garden is a welcome contrast to the world outside. This book gives all the details on how to create a retreat full of mystery. It shows how to design for romantic effects, how to build and plant to make the garden secret and secluded, and how to create a magical atmosphere by using fragrant, arching and cascading plants with soft profiles and harmonious colours. This guide also contains a comprehensive catalogue of the most romantic plants, from fragrant - old-fashioned roses to tiny carpeters - with full cultivation details. Graham Rose is the author of "Green Words", "The Gardeners Almanac", "Landscape with Weeds" and "The Low Maintenance Garden".
