Produktbeschreibungen

From Library Journal

Since the median age of the American home is 30 years, many home landscapes need updating. Von Trapp (Landscaping from the Ground Up), a professional landscape designer and horticulturist, was prompted by her experiences in revitalizing her own home's aging landscape to write a book guiding homeowners step by step through a landscape makeover. Helpful checklists are included for both the planning and execution phases. Beautiful color photos and black-and-white line drawings, along with clear directions for do-it-yourself projects, make this a practical guide for bringing new life to a past-mature yard. Buchanan, a botanist, horticulturist, author of more than 20 books, and contributor to Country Living Gardener, also uses her own home as a showcase for her work. Unlike von Trapp, who focuses on rejuvenating older landscapes and solving common home landscaping problems, Buchanan offers a comprehensive treatment of landscape design, emphasizing designing with plants and including extensive information about choosing and caring for plants, trees, shrubs, vines, and ground covers. Her book, a companion volume to Taylor's Master Guide to Gardening (Houghton, 1994), is a landmark work destined to become a classic. The text is authoritative, but both the language and the examples are down-to-earth. Color photographs, line drawings, plant lists for special purposes, and checklists for projects such as making and using compost enhance this title. Practical yet challenging, both titles will help homeowners to improve their outdoor living environment, add value to their homes, and increase their pleasure in their yards. Highly recommended for public and academic libraries.

Decisions, decisions 2. Mai 2000
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This landscaping guide truly is a book about decisions, and we all know how hard decisions are to make. Author Rita Buchanan recognizes that drawing up a landscape design means making many decisions at one time, and that may be too much for some people. She gives several ways to visualize a planting, including a three-dimensional mock-up with garden tools and string or hose. She steps you through different types of paths and edgings, walls and fences and bridges. She devotes a large portion of the book to plant care. This section could stand on its own as a plant care guide.

An outstanding overview 30. April 2000
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This book is an outstanding overview of landscape design. The book is divided into small, easily readable segments discussing every aspect of design including evaluating your site, hardscape, and plant selection and care. This is not a how-to book; readers interested in this would be happier with any book by Sara Jane von Trapp. Instead, Taylor's Master Guide to Landscaping paints the execution of garden design in broad strokes. There is an emphasis on working with your individual property, and the book provides you with the knowledge needed to determine what will work in your yard (and what will not). A lot of information is contained in well-organized, cohisive prose. The photographs are beautiful and appropriate to the subject matter being discussed. I found this book very difficult to put down, although it is organized in such a way that it would be easy to digest in small portions (as well as refer back to later). In conclusion, no gardening fan should be without this book.

Comprehensive and well designed; sometimes too opinionated 13. November 2000
Von Dan Hooper - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
The book is what its title says and that's good - a master guide to landscaping. While I respect Ms. Buchanan's opinions on matters of landscaping since she obviously is versed enough to complete this well done and comprehensive book, it seems to me that her opinions sometimes get in the way of common, useful, tried and true landscaping practices. Example: On page 229 she adamantly states, "...Disregard anyone who tells you to set hedge plants in a zigzag pattern...", yet the picture above depicts just that and, quite frankly, it's commonly recommended to do so. As a designer, I do use that technique for hedge planting because it creates a billowy effect and it's more visually interesting, in many instances. The point is, that statement is an opinion that may not be based on anything more than personal taste.

Having said that, it's an excellent and in-depth guide to the extensive field of landscaping and a very good book just to see what her educated opinions might be. Keep an open mind and refer also to other more task-specific books and expertise when faced with landscape challenges. This book certainly will entertain one with its views, many of them interesting and useful.
