Encyclopedia of Landscape Design: Planning, Building, and Planting Your Perfect Outdoor Space Hardcover – September 5, 2023

So helpful in planning your garden space. The pricing is good and the description is spot on. A must for all gardeners.

So useful, so much great information, BUT not too densely packed and thrown at you. Instead it's broken down into wonderful sections within sections so it's easier to digest. There are so many wonderful pictures to help illustrate the points of each section as well. Really, you could have it as a coffee table book and it will be 1000 times more useful than any coffee table book! I had to buy a $186 landscape architecture book for a class and this book is so much more useful to me. It briefly touches on the drawing aspect, the rest is theory and principles (1/3), garden styles (1/3) then plants, materials, and resources (1/3). I think it's great for professional designers but also for interested homeowners, AND it's a great supplement for the aspiring architects out there.

Good book for help with designing a garden.

Pros: beautiful photos, great ideasCons: a bit overemphasis on environmentally friendly techniques; could use a bit more detailed text in some parts

Are you wanting to design a Japanese, modernist, Mediterranean or water garden? This book has these and all other gardens you would expect in a DIY book. It is filled with beautiful designs.This book is another must-have for you landscaping DIYers. It goes into detail about how to design gardens from different countries/culture, great photos and ideas and tons of information you won't see in other books. This book is from UK designers, and gives an English view of design, but It has really great ideas, and is a great reference for U.S. gardens.

I have a lot of landscaping books - I was a bit wary of ordering this one but I am SO glad I did. Even tho it's from the UK the information in this book is very well presented, the photos are a great addition, the details on how and why along with plant information are wonderful. I'm experienced at landscaping but every once in a while a great book comes along to help me either remember or apply a new design. Love this book......

This is the best gardening book I have purchased in years.

Superó mis expectativas, se lo compre a mi novia y ella lo amo! gran producto con mucha información valiosa!
