Description
A knowledge of how different colors affect us is the first step to creating color moods in your garden, so Malcolm Hillier begins with the basic principles of color theory. Spectacular photographs, using hundreds of leaves and petals, illustrate the gardener's color wheel and the effects you can produce. Stunning garden pictures look at form, texture, scale, distance, and changes in natural light - all factors that influence our reaction to color. Season-by-season themes present Malcolm Hillier's decidedly adventurous way of combining colors. A checkerboard palette of plants brings together all the colors we familiarly associate with a given season. For each theme, annotated flower-and-foliage swatches review how his mix of colors reflects and gives rise to different emotions. Glorious photographs, taken on location, suggest how to carry the themes into your own garden.
