Beyond the Lawn

Written by veteran landscape designer Keith Davitt, this guide offers a wealth of ideas for non-traditional outdoor spaces that are as beautiful as they are low-maintenance. It shows how to banish cutting, watering and weed worries by creating outdoor spaces that replace traditional grass lawns with rock walls, sculptures, native grasses, mosses, wildflowers and more. Davitt guides readers through design choices that suit their unique needs, such as determining which plants will thrive in particular climates and soil conditions.
