Full Description
Each designer has contributed four completely original designs and there are borders for every situation, season and taste, each one stamped with the individuality and personality of its designer. They range from a sunny Mediterranean border, a shady woodland border and a colourful summer border to an oriental border, a single colour border and an easy care border. The designs are accompanied by a detailed planting plan, a 3-dimensional realization and plant portraits to inspire amateurs to think like professionals when planning their borders.
