Creating gardening magic on the weekends

For anyone entertaining the in–laws, or planning a barbecue, or thinking of reselling a house, turning a neglected backyard into a showcase–almost overnight–might sound impossible. Ideal for the gardener strapped for time, Garden Makeovers shows how, with only a few inspired touches–like candle holders, decorations, and a reshaped lawn–to instantly transform a weed–ridden patch into an awe–inspiring creation that will wow the neighbors. Featuring ten gardens in detail, the book includes each garden′s plan as well as overall and close–up photos, all in an easy–to–read magazine–style format.
