More About This Book

Overview

Renowned garden artist Keeyla Meadows sees the world in strong, saturated shades. Fearless Color Gardens brings this unique vision to life by showing how to use wild, uninhibited color to connect indoor and outdoor spaces and turn a garden into a work of art.

Learn how to pick colors that work together; how to coordinate the colors of walls, benches, containers, and garden art; how to organize garden spaces through the use of color; and how to translate personal color preferences into tangible form in the garden. Fearless Color Gardens also features a new way of looking at color with "Keeyla's Color Triangle"; easy-to use tips on growing edibles in color themed gardens; and Keeyla's favorite plants for specific colors.

In the end, readers will want to reinvent the staid rules of the color wheel and turn their color preferences into intoxicatingly vibrant garden expressions.

Editorial Reviews

Seattle Times

"If you're shy about using color, this is the book for you, because Meadows hasn't met a shade, tone, or hue she couldn't put to clever use."

— Valerie Easton

BloomingWriter blog
“Meadows is a cheerleader for gardens full of color, and of gardeners unafraid to push their boundaries.”
More Reviews (3) Fewer Reviews
Detroit Free Press

"The book jacket's eye-popping colors are just a prelude to the lush photos that lie within."

LA at Home

"It reads like a colorist's memoir, complete with a muse named Emerald. Strong on fantasy, it's also a useful workbook for garden owners who need a nudge toward the more vibrant end of the color spectrum."

San Francisco Chronicle
“Meadows’ book, lavishly illustrated with her own photographs, offers basic guidelines for designing with color: pick a principal color, then work with harmonious and contrasting shades.”

    Fearless Color Gardens is truely a colorful book.

    I loved the book that I bought three more to give to my friend and family. I went out to buy some paint and brushes to start my color garden. What a way to brighten up up the day!

    The purpose of this book is to show how to bring vivid colors into your garden along with inspiration and creativity. I enjoyed the illustrations. I'm glad I have this book and will keep as one of my favorite gardening books. I'm picky when it comes to gardening books. For me the book has to have something special about it. This one is a keeper for me and is worth having.
