Taking a new approach to containers for "real gardeners," Container Gardening features more imaginative plants than most books on the subject and looks at the latest designs and new materials for containers. Offering practical advice on planting and year-round maintenance, as well as looking at inspirational ideas for today's more style-conscious gardener, the emphasis is always on the plants themselves with expert practical advice on how to grow and maintain them through the year.
