Synopsis

Landscape Gardening offers a practical guide to making land more beautiful and livable, with ideas you can apply at home, on a farm, or in public spaces.

The book explains the aims, principles, and methods behind shaping scenery that suits climate, land, and life, while emphasizing harmony with nature.

Drawing on historical and field experience, it discusses how to place a house for comfort and views, plan plantings that glow through the seasons, and manage trees, shrubs, water features, and roads. It also covers special topics like farm wood-lands, arid-region landscaping, and the care of plant materials, so readers can create lasting beauty that supports real-world needs.

  • Plan planting for sunshine, views, and balanced, graceful groupings.
  • Choose trees, evergreens, shrubs, and perennials for year-round appeal.
  • Integrate water, lawn, paths, and structures to form cohesive landscapes.
  • Apply landscape ideas to homes, farms, parks, and public spaces.

Ideal for homeowners, farmers, and landscape enthusiasts seeking practical, design-minded guidance.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
