Gardening with Ornamental Grasses Summary

Gardening with Ornamental Grasses by Roger Grounds

The variety of species of ornamental grasses available today have made them an integral part of garden design. This book inspires amateur gardeners and enthusiasts to undertake more in-depth projects including choosing the right grasses for planting in the shade, how to create a container jungle of grasses and bringing the 'prairie' direct to your doorstep. Beautiful artistic impressions of the completed projects and a vast selection of stunning photographs provide a fascinating insight into what can be achieved by correct planting. The comprehensive A-Z of grasses, listed by botanical names, contains further information on selecting the right plant for your garden scheme.
