Over 300 evocative colour photographs capture the beauty of the season in this planting guide. From the shy emergence of the first few spring bulbs the book moves on to summer with a look at the finest bulbs, annuals, perennials, climbers and shrubs of the season. After the bright floral displays of summer have faded, the fiery foliage colours of autumn take centre stage, and even in the depths of winter, there is inspiration to be found in the garden, with lush evergreens and white anemones, long-lasting hellebores and snowdrops. At-a-glance lists of jobs to do each season to ensure all-year success in your garden are also included.

"The height of summer and the garden is full of colour - hardy geraniums, delphiniums, gypsophila and roses, all intertwining to provide a picture of perfection in the borders. But come late July, August, it all goes a bit flat. Flowers have come and gone and the frustration begins. But a little careful planning and foresight can ensure colour not only through every summer month but into autumn and even winter. This wonderfully inspirational book, with its wealth of colour photographs, guides the reader through each season, highlighting the plants at their best and offering both container planting and border schemes to make the most of them. From spring bulbs through summer's herbaceous stars to autumnal asters and winter hellebores, author Richard Rosenfeld offers a visual feast of plants to choose from to ensure you have colour in your garden whatever the season. No longer do you need to look out at a bleak winter border: foliage, bark, berries and even flowers can be yours and the envy of your neighbours. Whilst underground lurk the bulbs and corms that will come to life with sumptuous colour in early spring and the roots and rhizomes of herbaceous perennials, waiting for a little warmth before they too spring to life with an almost overnight surge of foliar growth to be followed in early summer by a cacophony of colour. Full of ideas and inspiration, this is a must for all those planning their first garden or those just looking to extend the seasons with color." - Lucy Watson
