Choose rom a surprising variety of containers and plantings, from classic lotuses and small water lilies peeking out of traditional urns, to pots and tubs on windowsills and door stoops. here is the basic information needed on how to select a container (anything you can seal and make watertight); the most attractive low-maintenance plants and how to care for them; how to stock fish; how to adapt your care to the four seasons; and much more -- all with color photos to inspire your ideas, ad close-up photos and drawings to show you how to carry out each step of preparation, manufacture, and care.
