From Library Journal
The right ornament, placed in the right spot, can transform a garden into a place of mystery, repose, or enchantment. Smith, author of The Potting Shed (Workman, 1996), details the types of ornaments that create movement and direction, draw the eye, establish a sense of space, or welcome wildlife. From a scarecrow in the midst of a vegetable patch, to an elegant urn against a background of yew, to a fanciful cherub spilling water into a bowl, Smith details the history and cultural symbolism of each featured ornament. Complete with instructions on the selection, siting, and care of ornaments ranging from simple wooden birdhouses to antique marble statuary, this profusely illustrated book, complete with source guide, will delight all gardeners.?Nora Harris, Marin Cty. Free Lib., Corte Madera, CA

From Booklist
Sundials, statues, urns, earthenware jars, lead cisterns, chimney pots, millstones, sandstone slabs, fieldstones, flowerpots, wood figures, fountains, lanterns, dovecotes, birdbaths, birdhouses, old pumps, and scarecrows are among the garden ornaments that Smith includes in this profusely illustrated book. She gives information on the materials to be used and on care, and she offers instructions on designing a garden to achieve a specific cultural effect and on choosing the right plants to complement the ornaments. This informative book also includes a source guide. George Cohen
