Combining cool modernist style with plantings that really work
Here is an innovative approach to container gardening, with an emphasis on real containers with established plantings in specific locations. This guide demonstrates how understanding a location's particular set of constraints will help readers choose the perfect container and plant species that thrive in it. There is a city roof garden without any protections from the elements where tough concrete planters, heavy enough to stay put in even the fiercest storm, are filled with maritime plants chosen to withstand drying winds, lashing rain, burning hot sun, and airborne pollution. A damp and gloomy basement garden is home to a pot of delicate ferns and woodland flowering plants. This handy book is full of ideas and schemes for all sites, whether kind or cruel.
