reviewed Small Gardens and How to Make the Most O on September 15, 2015 Small Gardens and How to Make the Most O
This is an adorable little book with some basic introduction to principles of container design, more than 80 pages of plant descriptions with pictures, and 101 d-i-y guides for containers of all kinds. These are actually the highlight of the book, as they have drawings with the number and placement of plants as well as pictures of the finished products.
I personally found this book inspiring, but wanted to see more creative use of plants in many of the combinations. The author adheres very strictly to the container design concept of "thriller, filler, spiller," which is commendable but eventually makes all pots look basically the same. Still, very highly recommended for anyone looking to learn more about building container gardens.
KC warning: look closely at plant requirements, as our climate makes some more or less appropriate, regardless of the USDA Zone Hardiness listing.
