Often when we plan our gardens it is the visual impact of the finished effect that we see in our mind's eye. However, while good design and attractive planting schemes are always appealing, this isn't the whole story. This manual discusses how to incorporate sensory elements into the garden, whether it is planting a scented rose or honeysuckle near a window, adding planting to attract wildlife, or adding a gently-flowing pool or water. A garden can incorporate all these elements and many more, whatever its aspect or size. There are ideas for colourful borders, waterfalls and fountains, edible flowers and textural and tactile planting. The volume is divided into chapters on sight, sound, touch, taste and smell.
