Opulently illustrated with 375 paintings, illuminated manuscripts, botanical drawings, and frescoes, as well as period and contemporary photographs, this is a classic work that will be consulted for years to come.

Designed for anyone with a jungle they want to turn into a romantic country-style garden single-handedly, this book is based on Penelope Hobhouse's experiences of reclaiming the garden at Hadspen House, Somerset. The book shows how to clear, plan and plant for minimum upkeep and cost, using plants rather than people and machinery to do the work. This practical guide provides full descriptions of more than 800 plants grouped according to their design role in the garden. The approach can be applied to any garden, large or small, old or new, in country or town. Penelope Hobhouse is the author of "Colour in Your Garden", "Garden Style", "Flower Gardens", "Plants in Garden History" and "Penelope Hobhouse On Gardening".
I really do like this book, it's broken down into understandable chapters which make sense all the way around regarding the nitty gritty of how to garden, not just pictures but actual how-to information. I think some of the information is a little out dated, especially now that the emphasis for sustainable gardening is on native gardening. I see she recommends some (to my area) invasive plants. But since I know this I simply do not take her advice on this matter and garden as I know the best for my area. Overall Penelope knows her stuff and I do love what she has to say about gardening in general.

I have been trying to buid a perennial garden for several years. I bought this on a recommendation from Amazon and I already have many more ideas for this year and the next several.
