FLOWER POWER is a bold and transformative guide that will change the way you think about garden design forever.

Visionary plant advocate Jac Semmler introduces a groundbreaking philosophy to create year-round wonder: a garden with layers of heroic and supportive plants and flowers; with textures and patterns; with resilience and delight - no matter the season or climate.

This is not about following rules; it's about unlocking your vision and understanding the core creative elements of garden design to create plant-driven gardens of beauty that are truly your own. With a seasonal calendar of care, practical how-tos and innovative graphic guides that explore methods for composition and layout, Flower Power lights the way for gardens that flourish, change and captivate - all year round.

Reviews for Flower Power: Designing gardens for year-round wonder

A joyful invitation to see gardening as an ongoing, creative partnership with nature -- Cherrie Miriklis * Flowers Vasette * We all need more plants in our lives. In this beautiful and evocative book, Jac Semmler sets out a clear path towards achieving your own truly fulfilling, wonderful and exuberant plant-based garden. * Nigel Dunnett, PROFESSOR OF PLANTING DESIGN AND URBAN HORTICULTURE, UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD * It's not often I get to write the phrase, 'a riot of colour', but upon opening the pages of self-described plant practitioner Jac Semmler's latest book, these were the first words that came to mind... Coming in at a hefty 352 pages, this hardback edition is no lightweight tome! However, Jac's writing flows easily, making the text easy to engage with. Her words are accompanied by the beautiful photography of Sarah Pannell, and key design and planting concepts are illustrated by gorgeous yet easily understood graphics. A highly recommended addition to your horticultural library! * Horticultural Media Association *
