25 Best Planting Plans

25 Best Planting Plans

by NoelKingsbury (Author)

Synopsis

A common-sense handbook on planting for every type of garden. It seeks to guide the reader through the jungle of plant combinations -the art of finding plants and styles that you like, that will look good in your garden and that will grow successfully. Among the 25 planting plans there are family gardens, low-maintenance gardens, a herb garden, a rose garden, a white border or a pastel one, a Japanese garden or a classical one, and even plans for window boxes. Introductory chapters explain how to assess your garden to find out what situation and soil type you have, the best plants to choose for such conditions and how to decide what kind of style of garden you want.
