Great Gardens in Small Spaces features forty-four wonderful and exquisitely photographed California gardens, specifically treating the small garden, its particular challenges and its abundant opportunities and rewards. Most people do not have the luxury of grand estatelike spaces, but are confined to much smaller plots. This book is unique in its focus on rarely photographed, small, exquisitely detailed gardens of both northern and southern California, and encompasses gardens in the cities of Venice, Pasadena, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Laguna Beach, and Carmel, among others. Great Gardens in Small Spaces will show gardeners with limited space how to design beautiful oases on a compact yet fulfilling scale.
