Urban Flowers explores the many ways in you can bring colour and interest to a small city garden, whatever its location and whatever your taste. Garden designer Carolyn Dunster demonstrates hundreds of ways to make your outdoor space bloom. By using her colour-themed planting recipes, her charming projects, and palette of reliable urban plants, you too can turn the least promising corner into a thriving habitat for plants and wildlife. Find out how to: evaluate you city space and be clever with design; use plants and materials to reflect your style; follow easy practical projects and experiment with colour; choose plants suitable for you own urban location; prolong the growing season by drying or cutting flowers and saving seed for next year."--Back cover.
