Synopsis

This book is an introduction to landscape gardening, aimed at students and hobbyists with no prior experience. The author starts from the first principles of the subject, explaining its aims and the basic terminology used, before moving on to more complex topics such as surveying, drawing, plant selection and the aesthetic principles of design. The book's approach is focused on practical work, with exercises and problems designed to help readers develop their skills and gain a deeper understanding of the subject. There is also a strong emphasis on the relationship between domestic gardening and wider civic planning issues, with plenty of advice on how to apply the principles of landscape gardening to public spaces. The author stresses the importance of the native landscape of any given area, and offers detailed guidance on how to preserve and enhance its natural beauty. This book will appeal to home gardeners seeking to improve their own plots, as well as to students wishing to learn the basics of landscape gardening as a profession.
