Review Quote

“This little gem…takes a new approach to guiding gardeners toward success.”

“Other books have presented companion-plant suggestions, but Fischer’s seasonal approach is particularly handy—added insurance that a carefully composed arrangement of plants will actually bloom at the same time.”

“This book simplifies garden design by suggesting plants that not only complement one another in color, form and texture, but also bloom at the same time and have like requirements for sun and moisture.”

“Fischer gives as much attention to texture as he does to color, and the results look doable as well as desirable.”

"Provides readers with a multitude of plant combination suggestions."


"Combining plants … is not easy. [This book] can help."

"Filled with helpful photographs of plant combinations."

"A great little book for helping a gardener to create or enhance borders and beds."

"Takes away the guesswork of gardening."

"Whether you want to create a small-scale sanctuary, a welcoming path, or a pretty border, you can find ideas in this handy guide."

"This book is much more than eye candy … [It] is compelling—one beautiful combination after another."
