Planting: A New Perspective

One book we cherish and return to time and again here at the farm is the inspiring, educational, and irreplaceable Planting: A New Perspective by renowned Dutch landscape designer Piet Oudolf and English garden designer, writer, and educator Noel Kingsbury. Originally published in 2013 and still groundbreaking, this 280-page hardcover belongs on every gardener’s bookshelf. It is filled with detailed landscape plans, plant lists, and stunning color photographs of some of the gardens Oudolf has designed all over the world (including New York City’s High Line). The text is an exploration of Oudolf’s design process, one guided by his artist’s eye and a profound knowledge of the plants in his palette – how they grow and spread, how they look in every season, how long they live, how they behave in plant communities. For an outstanding gift, pair this indispensable book with the Piet Oudolf Gift Set: Trowel & Right-Handed Hoe (#55745 ). You will be equipping any gardener with information, inspiration, and tools they can rely on for a lifetime.
