Samenvatting:

Canadian author Margaret Atwood said in her work Two-Headed Poems, ‘This is the rock garden. In it, the stones too are flowers’, exemplifying the attraction that a rock garden holds for many people. Rock gardens appeal not just to plant enthusiasts but also to those with an interest in geology. A successful rock garden depends on skilful use of stone to create an aesthetically pleasing design, as well as a suitable habitat for plants.

This lavishly illustrated book explores the history of the creation and design of rock gardens, as well as their place in society.
