1000 Garden Ideas

Highly successful author and innovative designer, Stafford Cliff, has visited hundreds of gardens in the course of his travels over forty years all around the world.

With his unique designer's eye, he has photographed the cleverest solutions, the most original choices the best of everything a gardener could dream of. This fascinating book brings together those images in kaleidoscopic juxtaposition, creating, for the first time, a complete sourcebook of inspiration and reference on all the best ideas for gardens from colour and planting to hard surfaces and features. A veritable visual jigsaw delights the eye with the quirky alongside the classic, the modern set against the traditional.

For every decision that a new gardener has to make, for every change that an established gardener wishes to introduce, here is the complete range of choices the plants, the path, the paving, the pots are all shown. And if you'd never thought of an ornamental gate, a water feature in a container, a sundial, here they are, too. And, as practical as it is inspiring, the book also includes a directory of suppliers so that readers can turn inspiration into reality.
