Synopsis:

This design and style sourcebook shows readers how to use terracotta pots to improve or even tranform the look of the garden in practical ways. Terracotta (literally "baked earth") is a versatile material and terracotta pots look good in any situation, from the grandest garden to the humblest window ledge. The book concentrates on the containers themselves: it reveals the vast range of styles, from the simple to the classical and ornate - and decorative effects, from the natural warm red-earth-brown to bright paints and beautiful glazes; and shows in detail how to place and plant these stylish pots for best effects. Beautiful containers provide architectural features and focal points in larger gardens, change the mood and add seasonal accents in small gardens and even create gardens in tiny spaces where none existed before.

Review: 'Packed with beautiful pictures and great ideas, it is both artistic and inspiring.' -- Gardens Made Easy, October 2001
