Definitely informative, but I find it tremendously boring. If you're not overly invested in chi then it's probably not what you're looking for. The appendix information is helpful and the case studies practical, but the book spent a lot more time in the theory and "rules" than I'd wanted.

If you need a good introduction to feng shui concepts, this book has it. It also offers suggestions about creative use of color, shape, materials etc. in the garden. They have many good suggestions for mixing leaf shape and tree shape and managing odd shaped plots.

The Feng Shui Garden by Gill Hale has excellent photos and drawings to explain feng shui principles. There are several out of print editions available including this one.
