Nigel Dunnett's approach to naturalistic planting has been a source of inspiration for city dwellers for decades, creating beautiful and uplifting spaces that resonate with the natural world. In this book, he shares his philosophy and working methods, providing a comprehensive guide to creating plantings that thrive with minimal demands on resources. Dunnett's approach is rooted in his understanding of wild plant communities and how they behave in garden situations. He shares his plant selection, including trees, shrubs, perennials, and annual meadow plants, as well as implementation techniques, to help readers create their own naturalistic plantings. With this book, readers can learn how to read wild plant communities and apply Dunnett's principles to their own gardens. By exploring Dunnett's design toolkit, readers can gain a deeper understanding of how to create plantings that are both beautiful and sustainable. This book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to create a naturalistic garden that reflects the beauty of the natural world.
