The Patio Garden

by Hazel Evans

Published 1 January 1976
A sunny corner of the garden, a tiny backyard, a roof terrace - whatever the space available, this book offers many ideas for creating a new outdoor room. Examples of some of the best existing patios demonstrate how to put good design principles into practice, and provide varied solutions for tackling every situation, exposed or sheltered, sunny or shady, large or small. Examples include a shady terrace and a town patio garden. This book contains a comprehensive and clearly laid out section on structuring the patio, illustrated with colour photographs and explanatory diagrams. Hazel Evans is the author of "How to Cheat at Gardening", "Instant Gardens" and "Small Space Gardening".
