Garden Design My favorite books fall into this category, as they encourage you to imagine what you could
do . . . Again these titles are not directly aimed at exotic or tropical gardens/gardeners, but instead cover
the basic principles of design that can be applied to any garden.

Paul, Anthony Creative Ideas for Small Gardens HarperCollins, 1994. 0004129059 Originally from New Zealand, Anthony Paul uses
his experience to create effects with strong structural shapes and
good leaf interest. Some commissions from down under are used as
illustrations. This book has a little bit more for the palm enthusiast.

ideas on color themes and using plants for dramatic effect.
