New Zealand Practical Garden Planning by George Wilkie

'This is a book which discusses how to create features in the garden which complement and enhance the established plants in a made garden, and also deals with the design of a garden and its built features from the beginning, on an undeveloped allotment. The author impresses on the reader that the garden, its buildings, and the house should be in harmony, and that the garden is something to be viewed from within the residence as well as without. When people decide to re-design a garden there are many aspects to consider. It is necessary to observe the angle of the sun to the area, the distance from boundary fences, the effect of the new structures on the garden, house, and neighbours. He is mindful of environmental factors and advises the reader of the steps to take to make the garden design on paper a reality, and in accord with the surroundings.'.
