{"product_id":"9780719840258","title":"Designing and Creating a Winter Garden by Sally Gregson","description":"To create a garden that gives pleasure throughout the year is the goal of every garden-maker. The greatest designers maintain that it is the garden in winter that sets the scene for the remainder of the year. Designing and Creating a Winter Garden takes the reader through the process of designing a new garden from scratch or re-working an existing garden, with winter as the key, formative season. The first part of the book deals with design considerations and ideas, including:  assessing the site and its opportunities and constraints;  designing the basic framework for winter;  making use of low, winter light and using sparkling colour;  pots, containers and statuary in the garden, and finally the maintenance of the garden in winter. The second part comprises a detailed catalogue of suggested plants and their uses, grouped into:  evergreens;  winter-flowering trees, shrubs and perennials, including those that are strongly scented;  shrubs with coloured and textured bark and finally,  unusual, striking plants to use as focal points. This book sets out to inspire both garden designers and enthusiastic gardeners to create a garden that is as captivating in winter as it is during the remainder of the year.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56296701919605,"sku":"9780719840258","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780719840258.jpg?v=1762773252","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780719840258","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
