This book contains a classic guide to designing, making and maintaining a 'water garden', a type of water feature that focuses on housing various aquatic plants. From simple ponds to impressive structures and beyond, this profusely-illustrated and beginner-friendly guide has something for every gardener with an interest in water-based plants or outside water features. Contents include: "Making the Water Garden", and "Planting the Water Garden". Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
