This book will fill you with motivation and excitement throughout your gardening journey. Being from the Northeast, I really need to work on my seasonal color and creating winter focal points in my yard. I've always been interested in it, but wasn't sure what plants to look for. This book helped me get on the right track. Inside the pages you will find beautiful photographs of landscape design combinations. Each plant in the photo is numbered, making them easy to quickly identify. The step-by-step guides included in this book have really helped me grow and define my own personal garden style. The pages are full of endless color combinations, landscape design ideas and seasonal creations. I highly recommend checking out Landscape Design Combinations!
