Inhaltsangabe
A marginal garden is a large piece of ground (over half an acre) that is minimally differentiated from its surroundings, and can therefore be designed and tended with a minimal expenditure of time and money. The author explains the general principles of marginal gardening and their specific application to a nine-acre garden he built in the Scottish Highlands. He focuses on rural sites and on the behavior of plant species in high latitude and altitude European sites. Includes maps and b&w photos of the garden.

Reseña del editor
A truly intriguing, poetic, and thought-provoking book. The author lives in the Scottish highlands, with poor soil and a harsh climate. His "marginal" garden by design differs as little as possible from the surrounding wildness and requires little maintenance, yet satisfies the essential requirement of any garden by giving its owner pleasure.
