While typical gardens are planned for the heat of the day, it is the quiet, relaxed evening hours when most of us have the leisure to sit down and enjoy the rewards of our planting, weeding and watering efforts. Unfortunately, the beauty of the conventional garden is all but obscured by darkness. This book helps you create a garden (or add touches to an existing garden) that comes to life when the sun goes down. Covers more than 150 plant species. Sections include: walls, fences, paths; night-blooming flowers; fragrant plants; plants with silver foliage; ornamental and perennial grasses; how to light an evening garden; and much more. Over 100 full-color photos.Barash, Cathy Wilkinson is the author of 'Evening Gardens: Planning and Planting a Landscape to Dazzle the Senses after Sundown' with ISBN 9781881527145 and ISBN 188152714X.
