Make your garden a restful retreat-a place to restore the spirit. Just being outdoors can refresh tired eyes and perk up a tired mind. Imagine spending time in a garden that is relaxing just to look at with simple design, soothing plant colors, scents and textures, and the calming sounds of water, birdsong and the rustle of leaves. Peaceful Gardens shows you how to achieve a tranquil outdoor space with a touch of natural magic.

Experienced gardener and author Stephanie Donaldson promotes the virtues of simplicity in garden design, creating symmetry, and balance. Within the structure of the garden design, she suggests spaces for contemplation, incorporating art and sculpture, and the creation of scenic spots. In the final section, she suggests adding sensory touches such fragrant plants and herbs-for cooking and for aroma-and calming sounds for peace of mind.

With stunning photographs of inspirational peaceful gardens, lists of suggested plants and plenty of ideas for tempting wildlife into your garden, Peaceful Gardens will transform any outside space into a wonderfully restful retreat..
