The magic of colour is there for everyone; to become more aware of it, is to add another dimension to your sheer enjoyment of the garden and all that is in it. This title will help you realise the significance of colours, tones, tints and hues, the difference between blue-pink and samonpink, or between russet and crimson. It shows you how to introduce careful colour schemes, rather than make do with haphazard planting; to use well-placed groups of colour to blend harmoniously, or deliberate contrasts to create a dramatic effect. Between the extremes of an over-controlled palette and random 'hundreds-and-thousands; dots of mixed colour, there is a wealth of rewarding colour combinations, all discussed at length and lavishly illustrated.
