Description

Looking at the work of ten innovative garden designers who are living and working in Europe and America today, this text includes chapters on Dan Pearson, Nancy McAbe, Louis Benech, Piet Oudolf, Ron Lutsko, Steve Martino, Alain David Idoux, Patrick Chasse, Madison Cox and Nancy Goslee Power.

Reviews

"The work here is playful, undaunted by the classical tradition and far more concerned with sensory experience than academic correctness...the excellent text and pictures manage to extract from these gardens valuable lessons."
