A lot of basic stuff in this book, but here and there are some truly clever ideas, many of which I would like to try. Use climber to hide rubble, use clematis to fill in a scraggly shrub, ways to use a broken pot, plant bulbs in a plastic basket, use an upside down pot to help fill an unnecessarily deep pot (or styrofoam or plastic), how to plant up hanging baskets, and things to use as liners. Enough good ideas to use as a reference.
