The essential elements of good garden design–form, layout, and balance between colors and textures–are all thoroughly covered in this newest book by landscape architect and writer Hudak (Gardening with Perennials Month by Month). An opening chapter on garden innovations through the centuries leads the way to chapters on evaluating, planning, and designing one's own garden. Hudak pays particular attention to individual details such as incorporating water features, fences, hedges, terraces, etc., and devotes detailed sections to each. He then discusses specific types of plants, such as evergreens and perennials, and shows how these plants should effectively be used in the landscape design.

Successful garden designs offer a careful arrangement of form, texture, proportion, and color harmony. In these pages, the renowned landscape architect and horticulturist Joe Hudak provides an overview of design innovations through the ages and concludes with a personal account of his own five-year-long garden renovation project.
