Summary |
Small gardens can exude an intensity, intimacy and immediacy rarely found in their larger counterparts. Diminished dimensions certainly need not mean compromise. The small gardens featured in this book are all cleverly curated habitats, inspired rather than limited by their size. At the heart of their success lies careful consideration as to how to best use the space available, a sound knowledge of plants and how they will behave. Designing an outdoor living space is a highly personal affair and the gardens in this book reflect a diversity of purpose and vision that gives them all a unique connection with nature. |
