The Nonstop Garden gives gardeners all the information they need to create a productive\, beautiful garden from the ground up. This easy-to-use guide is split into four main parts\: the nuts and bolts of designing a mixed garden\, the garden's main attractions (trees and shrubs)\, the garden's supporting cast (bulbs\, annuals\, edibles\, and vines)\, and finishing touches (ornamentation\, containers\, and garden structures).
The Nonstop Garden also includes ten fail-safe design plans that can be incorporated into any garden. Gardeners can choose from a native garden\, a scented garden\, a gold-colored garden\, a garden for wet sites\, a vibrant-colored garden\, a cool-colored garden\, a winter garden\, a shade garden\, and a design plan for the daunting area known as the hellstrip.
"\;I wish I had The Nonstop Garden when I was just starting out. It would have saved me plenty of trial-and-error. The ideas are easy to understand and carry out--just what gardeners need."\; --Steve Aiken\, editor\, Fine Gardening
