Search in google:
Advice & information for choosing, designing & building a greenhouse or potting shed Few outdoor structures are as rich with romance and promise as greenhouses and potting sheds. Inspired gardeners appreciate them for their utility as well as their charm. Even homeowners who are not avid gardeners enjoy the unique ability of these structures to lend a taste of English countryside to any property. Greenhouses & Garden Sheds contains hundreds of beautiful photographs featuring the finest examples of these structures. It presents clear choices and design features in a way that inspires as it educates. Readers will find a wealth of information to help lead them through the design and selection process. The book also includes step-by-step photos and instructions for a host of building projects involving and related to greenhouses and potting sheds, including start-to-finish construction of a lovely example of each type. Karen Ellis - Library Journal Need a perfect place to baby new seedlings for your garden? This lovely book tries to deliver but falls short. Price (The Complete and Easy Guide to Stargazing) and Greer, author of a number of decorating and design books, include good details on design considerations, emphasizing site requirements and user needs, with insightful pros and cons for different styles. But all the beautiful pictures of garden spaces and structures lead up to merely four construction projects, including instructions for kit assembly and a copy of a design first seen in the publisher's Black & Decker the Complete Guide to Contemporary Sheds. The gorgeous gallery of examples creates expectations that are not realized in this book. Still, greenhouse books are few, so purchase where needed.
