Great Garden Designs with Excellant Information,
This review is from: The Essential Garden Book (Paperback)
This is, without a doubt, one of the finest gardening design books I have come across. It shows many different styles of gardens with distinct flair. If you want to be inspired by innovative ideas, buy it. It is one of my two favorite gardening books---and I have many.

This review is from: The Essential Garden Book (Paperback)
My new favorite garden book! The photos and concepts are inspirational to a plant lover and Landscape Designer, such as myself. Very interesting combinations of plant groupings, breaks the mold of Sunset's books.
