{"product_id":"9781604692365","title":"The Layered Garden: Design Lessons for Year-Round Beauty from Brandywine Cottage","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrandywine Cottage is David Culp's beloved two-acre Pennsylvania garden where he mastered the design technique of layering — interplanting many different species in the same area so that as one plant passes its peak, another takes over. The result is a nonstop parade of color that begins with a tapestry of heirloom daffodils and hellebores in spring and ends with a jewel-like blend of Asian wildflowers at the onset of winter. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Layered Garden\u003c\/i\u003e shows you how to recreate Culp's majestic display. It starts with a basic lesson in layering — how to choose the correct plants by understanding how they grow and change throughout the seasons, how to design a layered garden, and how to maintain it. To illustrate how layering works, Culp takes you on a personal tour through each part of his celebrated garden: the woodland garden, the perennial border, the kitchen garden, the shrubbery, and the walled garden. The book culminates with a chapter dedicated to signature plants for all four seasons. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs practical as it is inspiring, \u003ci\u003eThe Layered Garden\u003c\/i\u003e will provide you with expert information gleaned from decades of hard work and close observation. If you thought that a four-season garden was beyond your reach, this book will show you how to achieve that elusive, tantalizing goal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Timber Press, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47061266956528,"sku":"9781604692365","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781604692365_p0.jpg?v=1763829084","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781604692365","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
