Achieving a perfect garden the Paul Bangay way.

Using diagrams, step-by-step instructions, plant lists, and above all Simon Griffiths's lustrous color photography of his designs, Paul talks about every aspect of garden building from developing a ground plan, constructing a retaining wall, and fitting in a swimming pool, to finding a lawn substitute and drought-tolerant plants.
