What is The Foliage Garden: Creating Tapestries of Color, Shape, and Texture about?
<p>Foliage takes the garden into another dimension, where form is as valuable as flowering and where leaves come in every color of the rainbow. <i>The Foliage Garden</i> shows readers how to create a garden primarily of leafy plants, adding interest with different leaf and plant forms, variations in leaf color, and ornamental bark and berries.Helpful sidebars give added information on topics of particular interest, such as ornamental grasses and bamboo's and how to accent form in the winter landscape.</p> <p><i>The Foliage Garden</i> also covers the palette of foliage colors and considers plants with the bonus of texture, fragrance, and form. Special plant lists off dozens of choices for different types of plants, from drought-tolerant foliage plants to blue-foliage conifers to plants with beautifully variegated leaves. And for those who are overwhelmed by the thought to trying to successfully execute these ideas, <i>The Foliage Garden</i> offers a variety of ready-made, easy-to-follow garden designs. These wonderfully illustrated plans ensure a garden of simple maintenance and rare beauty.</p>
