More About This Textbook

Overview

First published in 1992, Nick Robinson's The Planting Design Handbook has since become widely used as a definitive text on landscape architecture courses throughout the world. This second edition still provides a complete examination of both the principles and the practice of design with plants, for public, institutional and private landscapes, but is fully revised and updated, taking account of developments in professional practice and reflecting a variety of media which are currently used.

    Good discussions on design

    This is one of the few books that actually have some discussions on the design aspect of Planting Design. It involves colors, form and shapes of plants and spatial arrangement. Good discussions.
