Product Description
Review
'Buy it for its excellent text and celebrate the fact that the contributors are such articulate horticulturists, capable of presenting so clearly an increasingly important aspect of the use of plants in public open space.' -- Peter Thoday, The Horticulturist 'This is a much-needed book containing vast amounts of useful information ... It should help all those involved in the design and management of public landscapes to take the plunge into naturalistic planting.' -- Isabelle van Groeningen, Garden Design Journal March 2005 'Its clear and easy-to-read text will be of value to all working in amenity horticulture and the design and management of public greenspace. It is a textbook for social horticulture, but of real interest to everyone who has an interest in plants. I can think of very few IoH members who would not be delighted to own this book.' -- Peter Thoday, The Horticulturist

I find this book very useful as a planner of urban landscapes. It gives me an academic insight into plant communities, an overview of contemporary naturalistic planting design and information about creative management. In a context where money are sparce and natural look is valued, this book is a tresure of information.

The pictures in this book are of a very poor quality: many are very small or out of focus, or black-and-white where colour would have been the obvious choice. I was very disappointed with this purchase and returned the book for a refund. I was expecting better from Nigel Dunnett.

We have great friends from England... and of course they garden. However, this book ain't written in a way that will benefit either the Brits or us Yanks. Don't ask me why, just believe me. The cover is great, the book is a weed you'll wish you never discovered. Sorry. I love books and have probably a thousand or so. This one stays at the bottom of a big stack. YIKES
