The Intimate Garden: Spaces That Surround and Nourish Daily life for many people in the city can keep them away from nature, and not everyone has time or opportunity to go hiking in the mountains or take a trip to the beach. Author Brian Coleman presents ten examples of gardens in the US and UK that show how anyone can create their own personal oasis. Even small spaces can be transformed into a relaxing get-away from the modern world. Using tactics like coordinating your garden with the style of your home, utilizing each season's changing colors, and caring for difficult flora, this book provides a wealth of ideas and inspiration for the gardener in you. (This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
