Product Description

Review

"People like me, who roam their gardens with a trowel in one hand and a plant in the other, looking for any empty dirt in which to plant need this book. Ideas for color combinations as well as combinations of form, texture, and habit can help even us color-challenged gardeners have great-looking gardens. Different seasons, different environments, and different plant mixes are blended sensibly and artistically under Colston Burrell's artistry. A terrific read!"--Allan Armitage, professor of horticulture at the University of Georgia and author of Herbaceous Perennial Plants and Specialty Cut Flowers

"Talk about a great combination! Cole Burrell's brilliant design talent blends with his extensive experience as a gardener and a plantsman to make this book both visually dynamic and enormously informative. Not only are there numerous ideas for inspiring design combinations, but practical tips on soil, light, and maintenance requirements for the plants abound. This book should help every gardener-- from the beginner to the professional-- design gardens that look as good in the landscape as they do on paper."--Tracy DiSabato-Aust, author of The Well-Tended Perennial Garden

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for the perennail gardener!, 15 Mar 1999

By A Customer

This book far surpasses other perennial books that I've read. It covers all the bases. It tells you what plants to put in the different parts of your yard (for example, dry, wet, shady, clay soils). It show you had to acheive lovely color and height combinations. It helps you plan for the different seasons of the garden. And, it even tells you how to care for your plants so that you get the most vigorous and sustained performance.

2.0 out of 5 stars perennial combinations - Stunning looks that make your garde, 17 Jan 2003

By A Customer

Informative, yes and some of the combinations are "new", but far from all inspiring. Though some of them might even help you no to make the same mistake yourself ...
The pictures are poor, quite a few of them with a blue tinge that doesn't exactly help you to get a true idea of the reality and others lack focus and/or depth.
The "22 exclusive garden designs" does not state height and spread in meters.
