Synopsis

Elsa Rehmann was one of America's first women landscape architects and an early advocate of using native plants in garden design. Noting that landscape design was often seen as the domain of estates, public works, and other grand properties, Rehmenn decided to pose fifteen common problems associated with small properties to the leading landscape architects of the day (1915-1920) to demonstrate that design principals could be applied anywhere.The result was "The Small Place", now considered amongst the most important books in the history of the field. Packed with creative and clever ideas, as well as designs for both formal and informal gardens, hillside properties, shaded gardens, city properties, and more, this is a classic volume that deserves its place in gardening's written history.
