The book is thematic in structure and is full of ideas that will make every urban gardener review their garden in a different light. As well as suggesting ways in which urban dwellers can create their private dream gardens, the book has practical advice on the basic design elements necessary to create an urban sanctuary, including a consideration of light, soil, space, scale and water, together with plant use and appearance. The main section of the book looks at how to create different styles of urban sanctuary - from low maintenance and family havens to those with water features, roof terraces and balcony retreats, indoor-outdoor rooms, and gardens of a more natural style. An A-Z plant directory recommends a wide range of essential plants.
