This book brings twenty-two splendid gardens to life in these pages. Here are urban, suburban, and rural gardens from all over the Midwest, each with a gardener who shares mistakes to avoid and triumphs to imitate, offering abundant suggestions for hot to overcome the region's problems and celebrate its characteristics. Design ideas abound: unrestricted prairie grasses and native wildflowers; various perennials imaginatively grouped; hundreds of hostas, a garden highlighting miniature roses, and more. At last, here is the visual and verbal encouragement along with the practical guidance needed to beautifully decorate one's own backyard.
