From 'Gardening Australia', this book shows you how to create a low maintenance Australian garden that will flower all year round. This definitive, indispensable guide will teach you how to use plants specifically for colour in summer, autumn, winter and spring. A must-have for gardening enthusiasts and lazy gardeners alike.
It is easier than you may think to create an Australian plant garden that is:
- a kaleidoscope of colour all year round
- simple to maintain
- attractive to birds and other wildlife
According to the seasons in different parts of the country, groups of Australian plants can be used to brighten your garden at any time of the year.
The book features sections on contrast and harmony, texture, massing for colour effects, the colour calendar in the native garden, and pruning to encourage year-round colour. There is an A-Z listing of plants, information on obtaining unusual Australian plants and an index of plant names.
