This just in: the beautiful garden book, Refresh Your Garden Design, is now on the scene. The book is latest work of California garden designer Rebecca Sweet, owner of Harmony in the Garden and the talent behind the blog, Gossip in the Garden.

Rebecca’s book is filled with ways to wake up a tired garden with texture, color, form, and even plant superstars!

Readers will learn how to break down traditional garden design principals into easy to understand and easy to implement solutions. That’s always a key thing for me.

And what eye candy! The book contains over two hundred gorgeous photographs. Sometimes all it takes is the looking through the right window to see your garden in a new light. Refresh Your Garden Design may just be that window.
