The Country Garden by Trisha Dixon
This is a guide to creating harmony and order in a garden that is, above all, practical. The book provides examples of sturdy fences and hedges, and how to achieve symmetry and perspective from a small vegetable garden to a large garden that borders the countryside beyond. There is also useful information on companion planting and biodynamic farming as well as helpful hints on planning and planting herb gardens and orchards, and creating eye-catching effects with flowers and foliage. Avenues, alleys, outdoor rooms and weather features are among the many other topics included for the more ambitious gardener.
