This is an updated and expanded edition of Oudolf’s popular book, first published 30 years ago, that introduced us to the beauty and benefits of using native and naturalistic plants in our gardens.
The edition includes new plants and plant combinations, as well as plans of iconic designs in the US, Sweden and The Netherlands. The first half of the book contains detailed plant descriptions; the second covers designing with this all-season plant palette.
“Gardeners in the US and Canada are now discovering the value of their own flora,” writes Noel Kingsbury in the introduction. “New selections of natives appear all the time. The perennial industry has now really developed a life of its own.”

Congratulations to Debby M. of Sperling, Manitoba, who was selected as the winner of a copy of the book from Garden Making. Debby’s entry was randomly selected from 368 entries in March 2020.
