- The gardener's palette : creating colour harmony in the garden / by Thompson, Jo(Landscape architect),author.; Royal Horticultural Society (Great Britain),issuing body.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."From the world's most respected gardening organization comes a new, soon-to-be classic volume that treats a traditional topic in a new way: a fresh concept of how to present color planting schemes to the reader, fresh graphic display for an encyclopedic topic, and an energetic, renowned garden designer as author who's won multiple medals at Chelsea and elsewhere. In conjunction with the RHS, author Jo Thompson presents a way for home gardeners to think about color that is new to garden publishing but familiar to anyone who's ever painted a room in their home. By referencing the RHS's industry-standard color chip system as if it were paint chips from a hardware store, Jo will create 100 predesigned color palettes, pair them with beautiful full-color hero shots of existing gardens to give readers a feel for how they will look in real life, and run easy-to-decipher, crisply designed and modern-looking charts and thumbnails of flower head shots to present readers with plants in those exact colors that they can use to get the look. We'll also include sidebars on related topics and 10 popular RHS planting schemes, as further inspiration to readers. Combined, these will make the book the most comprehensive volume on garden color ever produced"--- Subjects: Flower gardening.; Flowers; Gardening.;
