This book was given to me as a gift by a friend. I have yet to put it down. I am an experienced gardener, but have used it for new ideas and inspiration constantly. I loaned it to another friend and had to fight to get it back, so I have ordered her her own copy. An exquisite book, especially if you admire the Europeans their container gardens.

Io l'ho "comprato due volte". La prima non mi arrivò e la seconda lo prendetti dalla francia. E' piccolo, ma così carino! E' porprio adatto per il giardiniere maniaco che toglie le foglioline morte, i petali sfioriti,e poi ho sempre avuto un debole per i cestini sospesi, anche se a molti sembrano la madre del Kitsch (e forse lo sono!)Peccato che il materiale non sia poi tanto semplice da trovare. E comunque dà bellissime idee per gli accostamenti di annuali estive e di perenni per tutto l'anno. Decisamente da comprare, anche se non è molto voluminoso.
