Default Garden Design



"Derek" wrote in message ...

After many years with a small garden I now have a very large blank
canvas to keep me occupied. At the moment, its featureless. Can anyone
suggest a good book on Garden Design.


Derek if you asked a builder to 'Build me a house', he would ask you how
many bedrooms etc etc etc etc. Well it's the same with a garden, how big/
what do you want it for? How do you want it to look? What is the soil like?
Where are you? Do you want a labour saving garden? Does it face North,
South, East or West? Children? Ornamental? Veg patch?

Get the gist?
