Gardens with Atmosphere : Creating Gardens with a Sense of Place

Résumé

"Mastering this fusion of place and plants, history and horticulture, is the forte of acclaimed garden designer Maynard, who creates complete worlds within the landscapes he develops, from tranquil woodland glades to sculptured formal vistas....[He] encourages gardeners to acquire a broader perspective and allow their creativity to soar beyond the sheer physical- ity of a landscape and its horticultural requirements. Maynard's gardens are supremely lovely, ephemeral places that invite the visitor to experience them deeply, using every sense to its fullest, and his book is sublimely inspiring."--"Booklist."
