The Practical Rock & Water Garden: A Step-by-Step… by Peter Robinson

Water is a delightful element in any garden, having the power to soothe or excite. Combined with rocks, it brings a whole new dimension to garden design; whether you want a small water feature or a series of waterfalls. With its stunning photographs and clear practical advice, Water & Rock Gardening is perfect for the beginner as well as for the more ambitious gardener who wishes to create complex rock and water designs.
