<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Learn how gardening with shrubs can add permanence, structure, and presence throughout the four seasons.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In <i>The Creative Shrub Garden</i>, author Andy McIndoe calls on his years of horticultural design experience to shine light on all of the innovative ways to stylishly work shrubs into your landscape. This is a new approach to planning your garden--by mood and style. Whether it's an urban contemporary look, a cottage garden feel, or an uplifting an environment, <i>The Creative Shrub Garden</i> has a wealth of eye-catching combinations that bring new life to this classic plant. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Shrubs have the widest range of colored foliage, headiest scents, and most persistent flowers of all the plant groups. They are longer-lived than perennials and require half as much maintenance. This unashamedly shrub-centric design guide describes how to choose the right plants for the right place, and mix and match them in groups that bring year-round pleasure. Award-winning designer Andy McIndoe offers ready-made combinations that deliver a range of moods and styles for gardens of all sizes, the basics of designing with shrubs, and a comprehensive plant directory.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"His plant directory is rich and colorful. . . .
