Packed with practical tips and beautiful photographs, in Front Yard Gardens, Liz Primeau has transformed her manicured lawn into a mixed garden with a profusion of flowering plants, shrubs, and cacti that require no chemicals. Front Yard Gardens:
- Explores the history of the lawn and our attachment to it
- Contains more than seventy examples of front yard gardens
- Provides step-by-step instructions to start and grow your own
This book covers overall planning and design and outlines steps for removing grass, enriching the soil, and planting. The book is divided into several types of front yard gardens, including cottage, minimalist, secret, neighbourhood, downtown, and natural. Primeau discusses the key elements of each style, offers tips on creating and maintaining the garden, and provides a list of complementary plants.
