This is not primarily a how-to manual, but rather a compendium of Graham Stuart Thomas's favourite plants for all seasons, illustrated throughout with Thomas's paintings and drawings, plus photographs both by him - some from his own garden in Surrey - and other photographers.
Suitable for practitioners, enthusiasts and students in the realms of landscape, architecture, urban planning and design, this title profiles the fifty innovative landscape and garden designers who span the whole spectrum of contemporary practice on landscape and garden design.
A revised edition of the best-selling classic exploring the English garden, engagingly narrated, illustrated by over 350 colour photographs: armchair garden-visiting at its best.
Now in paperback, this classic book invites gardeners into some of America's most fascinating private gardens. Through over 400 color photographs of 28 gardens across the country, Ken Druse shows how gardeners can "collect" plants for their pleasure, without sacrificing their devotion to the natural garden or abandoning good design. Listings of plant sources, societies, and organizations have been updated for this edition. The Collector's Garden is the recipient of the Garden Writers Association Quill & Trowel Award for Best Photography (Book), and The American Horticultural Society's Annual Book Award.
