  Achieve your ideal garden--not someone else's. Twenty breathtakingly beautiful gardens illustrate the difference a design can make. Each of the 20 types of garden is built around a particular interest or intention. Create a special emphasis on year-round display, foliage, pond, stream, or woodland. Design a garden for intimate romance or for entertaining large groups: Mediterranean, Oriental, or cottage garden style, a large formal space, a private urban plot, a public front lawn, or even a roof garden. Planting schemes for each design come with complete instructions for hundreds of plants, shrubs, and trees, as well as tips for adapting them for different-shaped plots, elevations, and climates. 128 pages (45 in color), 80 b/w illus., 7 1/2 x 10.
