Title: Very Accessible Design Book with Lots of Plan ideas
Review: I'm a professional landscape designer and I really like Alice Recknagel Ireys' work and books. This one is 40 years old but to me her designs are timeless (materials have changed some) and her writing style is very warm and clear and yet is rich in content of principle, method, and material. She had a design style that combined just the right proportion of classic and modern elements in inspiring compositions that would still fit the needs of many contemporary gardeners. There are few other books that include so many and varied plans. I have all of her books-they're all bargains used-get them while you can.
