Designing with Grasses by Neil Lucas

Designing with Grasses shows gardeners not just what grasses are available, but how to design with grasses in different settings, including meadows, lawns, green roofs, and more. Design ideas are supported by carefully devised maintenance techniques, design checklists that make designing achievable by gardeners of all ability levels, and lists of grasses best for a variety of situations, including low-maintenance, drought-tolerant alternatives to the traditional lawn grasses and grasses suitable for green roofs and erosion control. An encyclopedic A to Z of grasses includes profiles with information on growth and care.

Neil Lucas is a world authority in ornamental grasses, the owner of Knoll Gardens in Dorset, a member of the RHS council and senior judge, an author, and the winner of ten straight Chelsea Flower Show gold medals. He established The Knoll Gardens Foundation to put wildlife gardening techniques to the test. Lucas conducts seminars on a regular basis, lectures abroad, and appears on television.
