“Eagerly awaited by gardeners, this book sits perfectly alongside the writings of two illustrious authors who wrote about this theme many years ago: Gertrude Jekyll and Penelope Hobhouse. Through one hundred evocatively-titled case studies of chromatic compositions, inspired by snapshots of both her and her colleagues’ gardens around the world, Thompson analyses the elements that make planting design work, focusing on the colour, shape and texture of flowers, which so often influence the interaction of colours.”
