THE GRAPHIC GARDEN

Whether your green thumb tends towards the luxuriant, the monochromatic, the symmetrical or the whimsical there’s beauty and inspiration aplenty in this splendid first book from the US landscaper who was fascinated by design and the natural environment from an early age. These are bold and extravagant gardens with riotous groundcovers, towering trees and billowy plants, and nary a petunia in sight. Keith Williams, Pointed Leaf Press, $190
