ABOUT THE BOOK
Today, we face challenges like limited space, budget and time. The Gardens of Eden shows how it still works to create your own green space. As our lifestyles become more sustainable, so does the way we interact with our gardens. No matter what size your patch is, it’s easy to create diverse and rich environments for plants and insects, or to grow your own fruits or vegetables. This title introduces you to 23 imaginative projects, featuring interviews with garden designers, insightful texts, and plans to show what contemporary garden culture looks like. In addition, it offers information about different climate zones and soil types and gives tips for sustainable gardening and self-sufficiency. Get creative with native plants, and design greener corners within urban areas. The Gardens of Eden looks at fascinating examples of gardens around the world, teaching you what you can do for nature while at the same time revealing what a green space can do for you.
