  Malcolm Hillier, master of colour, demonstrates his natural design talent with colour-related, seasonal planting for all manner of garden settings. Specially constructed studio photographs illustrate how the changing natural light of different climates, and times of day and year, influences our perception of colour; annotated flower-and-foliage swatches explain why selected colour associations work to create a variety of different moods and feelings; and photographs of garden locations translate the author's ideas into reality. A seasonal planting directory lists all the plants shown in the book, by specific and common name (where appropriate), and gives essential growing information for each one.
