Product Description

Bring big punch to limited spaces. Since small gardens have no room for waste, the choice and arrangement of plants is crucial. Find out which ones earn their keep by virtue of their exceptional shape, color, fragrance, foliage, or exquisite, long-lasting flowers. Identify which bulbs, shrubs, and border perennials are best suited to form the "understory," which work best in containers, and which shine as star performers creating dramatic focus in a defined space. Extend your garden upward with pergolas and arches, house walls and fences, and encounter new ways of maximizing the output of small vegetable gardens. Detailed profiles are offered of the most desirable plants for specific locations, for formal and informal gardens, in sun or in shade, and a special section summarizes the qualities and uses of the 250 all-time best plants for diminutive spaces. With this book as a guide, your garden will know no limits.
