would like to look at some formal garden plans... geometric/symmetrical

Kellie, I found this site some time ago and kept it for the Roses from the Past
plans. If I ever have a 20X40 area for planting......but they do include a
formal rose garden plan also.

If you're interested in buying a book, you could try this one by Ortho:

I've seen some Ortho books at either Lowes or Home Depot. You might check
there first to see if the book has plans you find interesting.
