Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: A Practical Guide to Topiary: The inspirational art of clipping, training and shaping plants, with designs, techniques and 300 photographs (Paperback)

This beautifully photographed book offers very little horticultural, technical, or practical information on the subject of topiary.
It does provide some good design guidelines and visual inspiration.

I live in a new Tuscan style home to which I am adding a topiary garden. This book was very helpful in planning/design, plant selection, and maintenance. Great resource.
