Perennials can form a key part of a garden's structure and are dynamic and colorful plants whose forms and textures can be used to alter moods and influence the way we respond to and use a garden. The first section of this book shows how to create garden schemes with perennials, and the second section looks at the best perennials for year-round planting and color effect. A third section considers how to use perennials in different styles of garden. The book is completed by a list of perennials for special purposes, and an A-Z directory with practical tips on all the plants included in the earlier chapters.
There a a boatload of perennial books out there and many of them not so hot. This is an exception. Superior photography with excellent perennial shots showing composition and design. And, it's not just a picture book. The text is well worth the read.

The book was well worth the money; gave me the information I was trying to hone in on about compatible paerennials, how to get the most impact out of your choices, etc.. I'm loving it!
