RHS Small Garden Handbook

An all-in-one handbook for gardeners working with small spaces, drawing on RHS experience in growing, planting, landscaping and design. It explains how to assess a plot by considering soil, orientation, microclimate, existing materials and proportions, before outlining principles of good design. It explores how layout, colour and texture influence the finished result, and shares design advice on boundaries such as hedges and fences, alongside ideas for containers and storage to help create a greater sense of space.
