Designing with Plants

by NoelKingsbury (Author), PietOudolf (Author)

Synopsis

This is a study of Piet Oudolf's New Wave planting theory and practice. Inspired by nature, his schemes demonstrate how form, texture, light and movement are as important as colour. The manual shows the essential building blocks of this style in special planting palettes, then explains how to combine them in schemes that will bring vibrancy to the garden throughout the year.
