Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE. THE world and his wife are gardeners nowadays. It is safe to conclude that most people have to be content with little gardens, and since these are notoriously more difficult to manage satisfactorily than large ones, I may be pardoned for believing that I have a good excuse for the publication of this volume. Little Gardens aims at giving concise and practical counsel on laying out a small garden and generally turning it to the best advantage. This may seem an impossible task within one hundred and fifty pages, but I believe the work loses nothing in being concise. Was I disposed to expatiate upon the delights that are within reach of the flower lover, or to elaborate an explanation of some practical work beyond the necessary limits Then at once I was confronted with the list of subjects still not touched upon, and compelled, willy-nilly, to confine my remarks strictly to essential information and to express this as briefly as possible. For the exposition of my views I have relied to some extent upon illustrations, for often it happens that a picture will tell a story better than a page of letterpress can do, and when pages are strictly limited, obviously this is a question worth consideration. One can make the most of a little garden only by choosing suitable plants and giving each the treatment best suited to its needs. Little Gardens weeds the good from the bad, and endeavors to show how the good may be made to give of their best.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stylishly photographed guide to creating lush, layered, dramatic little gardens no matter the size of your available space--an urban patio, a tiny backyard, or even just a pot by your door. Petite gardens align with the movement to live smaller and create a life with less stuff and more room for living. But a more eco-friendly and efficient space doesn't have to sacrifice style. In Small Garden Style, garden designer Isa Hendry Eaton and lifestyle writer Jennifer Blaise Kramer show you how to use good design to create a joyful, elegant, and exciting yet compact outdoor living space for entertaining or relaxing. A style quiz helps you focus in on your own personal garden style, be it traditional, modern, colorful, eclectic, minimalist, or globally inspired, then utilize every inch of your yard by considering the horizontal, vertical, and overhead spaces. You'll learn how to design stunning planters and container gardens using succulents, grasses, vibrant-colored pots, and more. Hendry Eaton and Blaise Kramer recommend their favorite plants and decor for small gardens, along with lawn alternatives and inspiration for making garden accents such as a fire pit, front door wreath, instant mini orchard, boulder birdbath, patterned vines, perfumed wall, and faux fountain with cascading plants. However small your garden, Small Garden Style will transform it into a magical, modern outdoor oasis.

Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
