Australian Planting Design

2012 | Home & Garden

This new edition guides the reader through all the stages of designing a new garden and helps to visualise the garden through an understanding of space, light, earthform, structures and vegetation. It discusses the choosing of plants, their form and shape, balancing plant types, fire and vegetation, design and form. The final section of the book looks at the dynamic garden and the importance of designing for change. Australian Planting Design focuses on how Australian plants may be used in gardens, whatever their size, function or site. It shows the way to use our plants to form a variety of satisfying, interesting and purposeful areas for both people and nature.
