Fascinated by the art and gardens of Japan and steeped in the new colour theories, the Impressionists developed a new style of painting and, notably in the case of Monet, championed a new style of gardening. Monet turned his six acres at Giverny into one of the great practical artistic achievements of the century, and planted a garden that he could later transform into paintings. By contrast, at Les Collettes near Nice, Renoir's garden - a forerunner of the now fashionable "natural" garden - acted as the focus for his art. Van Gogh, though never a gardener himself, was intensely aware of the colour contrasts at play in the natural world, and his writings and paintings are full of lessons for the gardener. This book analyzes the unique contributions the Impressionists made to garden design and planting. Using their gardens and paintings as his inspiration, Derek Fell has produced 25 colour planting plans that bring the realization of the planting schemes created by the Impressionists within the scope of the amateur gardener with a modest-sized garden. The accent is on the practical and the achievable. Themes such as colour, companion planting, gardening in light and shade, creating focal points are explored in detail. Derek Fell is the author of "Renoir's Garden".

This journal introduces each month with a key concept to guide gardeners. This record book features the 12 Hobhouse "rules" for good gardening, the first of which is to keep personal notes of gardens visited, of plants seen and plants bought, of setbacks as well as successes. She reminds gardeners of the pleasures as well as the value of recording seasonal changes in the garden, of noting tasks accomplished and jobs to be done. Photographs show a wide range of successful gardens, from Butterstream in Ireland to West Dean in Sussex and Penelope Hobhouse's own garden in Dorset. Penelope Hobhouse is the author of "Colour in Your Garden", "Garden Style", "The Country Gardener", "Flower Gardens" and "Penelope Hobhouse on Gardening".
