Gardening Without a Garden Book

Transform the smallest of outdoor spaces into a display of flowers and foliage. Whether you have a windowledge or balcony, roof garden or patio, or even just a few steps leading to your door, horticultural expert Gay Search provides all the practical know-how and inspiration you need. Whatever your location, space, climate, or exposure, this book presents a container of plants to fit it. There are ideas for spectacular seasonal displays, as well as low-maintenance designs that will look good all year round. Clear instructions, step-by-step photographs, and lists of "ingredients" explain how to create and care for the displays. Beautiful photographs of the plantings, plus suggestions for alternative plants, enable you to change the designs to suit yourself. An illustrated plant index gives essential information about all the plants - their habit, seasons of interest, and special needs - so you will know what plant to use where. Even if you think you can't have a garden - you can have a garden!
