Creating a beautiful garden has never been easier! Tim Newbury--a three-time gold medal winner at the prestigious Chelsea Flower Show--has come up with more than 100 superb designs to suit every taste, plot, and pocket. There are old-fashioned charming cottage gardens, Japanese-style gardens, and water and woodland gardens. Some are formal, others are coastal, and one is even on a rooftop. Construct gardens for the kitchen, entertaning the flower enthusiast, and the entire family. A vast selection of features from pools to patios, a comprehensive plant directory, and more than 600 photographs, watercolors, plans, and drawings make this the next best thing to hiring a garden designer to do the work.
