This is a great book..Designer Plant Combinations by Scott Calhoun. I freely admit to being one of those who cannot plan beds. I simply have to find a place to fit in all of the plants that I have to have. This book will make you want to run right out and create new beds..it will also make you want to run right out and get the plants to do them with..lol...
In fact, it makes such a difference when people can see things growing in the ground and different plant combinations,that I think I would like to do 'blocks' or vignettes of different combinations..rather than large beds or borders and blending it all together..separate squares of say 3-5 plant combinations, each a small garden in itself...displays.
