Urban Gardens: Plans and Planting Designs

by Ann-Marie Powell (Author)

Synopsis

Whatever its size, a garden is expected to fulfil many functions - to be a plot for plants, a play area for children, an area to relax in with friends. But as well as practical uses, we want our gardens to look as elegant and stylish as possible. The master blueprints in this book have all been specifically designed to create contemporary outdoor spaces suitable for urban settings. Designs that can be applied directly to any garden sit alongside a host of inspirational details that can be used wherever you choose. A full directory of planting details for each garden, including tips on how to establish the plants, ensure easy recreation of the designs. Full-colour photographs of the glorious end results show how your dream designs can become a reality.
