Sharp Gardening
Περιγραφή
For a new generation of gardeners keen to have contemporary plots, particularly those in cities, this book could be exactly what they are looking for (English Garden )
... an appealing exploration of the spiky, exotic style of planting (Times )
Gardening doesn't have to be nice. Sharp gardening revels in spiky architectural foliage plants to create a bold structure. Flowering perennials flesh the skeleton out: thrusting spires such as kniphofias, thistle-type flowers like echinops, and globe flowers with strappy leaves – alliums and agapanthus – both echo the spear-like leaves and add contrast. Ornamental grasses with their pointed tips complete the look, their floating, feathery outlines setting off the rigidity of spiky forms. Dramatic, low-maintenance and lending itself to small areas, sharp gardening is for any gardener who seeks massive impact and interest throughout the year. Christopher Holliday describes the range of sharp plants and gardens that incorporate them – all showcased in Jerry Harpur's photographs; and, by explaining how to use them in a cohesive design, inspires you to create your own sharp look.
