A revised and updated edition of Andrew Lawson's classic work
Andrew Lawson has an artist's eye, a scientist's training and long
experience as both a gardener and a photographer of gardens. In
this book he calls on all his skills and practical knowledge to
illuminate the complex subject of using colour in the garden and to
demonstrate the extraordinary power of colour to change the sense
of space, to suggest coolness or warmth and to evoke different
moods. The Gardener's Book of Colour shows how to put colours
together in garden beds, borders and containers, explaining how to
construct harmonizing and contrasting schemes and exuberant
displays of mixed colour. All the major schemes are supported by
keyline drawings giving full planting details. In addition,
illustrated plant directories, arranged by colour and flowering
season, provide cultivation details for over 850 plants, enabling
you to assemble the right plants for your chosen scheme and to
carry that scheme through the year. Authoritative and accessible,
The Gardener's Book of Colour will stimulate your imagination and
put exciting new ideas within your grasp. Whether you want an
instant splash of brilliant seasonal colour or a sumptuous border
with subtle year-round appeal, this book will show you how to
achieve it.
