Don’t go buy this book if you are looking for instructions on how to do what. It’s a wonderful book as inspiration. There are many photos of wonderful gardens that will make you get ideas for your own. That is really all I have to say about the book.

Small gardens present the gardener with a host of problems, but also with the rare opportunity to demonstrate a flair for creativity and style in a small setting. In this book, the reader is treated to many wonderful ideas of how to use flowers and plantings to best advantage. Scale must be maintained in a small garden and the color photographs in this book will help guide the gardener establish a truly tranquil and beautiful setting in even the smallest of spaces. Well worth it.

I LOVE THIS BOOK. It provides wonderful inspiration.
Brookes is in a league of his own in terms of smart and creative design.
If you love clean lines and contemporary/modern styles, GET THIS BOOK.

THis book is heavy — high quality paper, excellent pictures. It has a lot of really unique and beautiful gardens. More photos than any I have come across; I found the text to be helpful but I’d put this in the category of “inspiration” rather than “instruction.” If you know something about gardening and want ideas, I highly recommend it.
