Review:
Small gardens are becoming more and more common in these days of intensive house-building and the problems that arise in trying to work out how to tackle such small plots and make the most of them can appear quite daunting. Part of the RHS Practical series, this gives all the help and advice that you will need within it's highly illustrated, informative pages. Teaching you how to assess your plot, work out what you want from it and then implement it, author John Moreland shares his expert advice: whether you want an area for entertainment, relaxing, a children's play area or all of these combined, he offers innovative design plans alongside clear instructions on how to do the physical work. Stylistically he covers modern, contemporary, classical and more. Lawns, borders, water features, patios, pergolas, all looked at in context with the overall design to ensure you don't end up with a mish-mash of styles. Another essential addition to this Practical series, a set of which should be on every gardener's bookshelf. - Lucy Watson
