How to Design and Plant a Garden in Tune with the Landscape.
John Brookes, one of the world's most influential garden designers, is leading a quiet revolution and he is encouraging you to join in. In 'The New Garden', high-maintenance borders and manicured lawns give way to a host of more natural plantings and decorative treatments.
Inspired by a series of fascinating garden case histories, John Brookes explores ways to combine native vegetation and materials with related plants and shows how to produce spectacular effects in keeping with your locale.
Indispensable practical advice shows you how to work in harmony with nature at every stage of your garden's development - from the basic design and selection of materials for hard features, to choosing and positioning plant communities, and introducing garden art.
Just as John Brookes set the standard for garden design books in the 1980s with 'The Garden Book', 'The New Garden' is the trend-setting title for passionate gardeners of the 21st century.
