A useful guide for anyone who has moved into a new house and needs to create a garden that will meet their needs for decades to come. Garden Design and Planning shows you how to convert a bare patch or an existing layout into the garden of your dreams. Lavishly illustrated with photographs and drawings, it guides the reader through every stage of the process, from the initial planning to the fi nishing touches, offering practical advice on a variety of projects that are well within the reach of the average gardener or DIY enthusiast.

Alan and Gill Bridgewater are internationally renowned producers of dozens of successful books on gardening, DIY, woodworking and pottery, as well as contributors to many international magazines. Advocates of sustainability and self-suffi ciency, they live in largely off-the-grid in Sussex, England. South African consultant, Allan Haschick, worked in the retail gardening industry for over 20 years before starting his own landscape design company in 2016. Allan has been a contributing writer for SA Garden since 1999, and is a member of their reader advice panel. He has also written gardening columns for the Eastern Cape Herald and Algoa Sun newspapers, and gives talks to garden clubs throughout the Eastern Cape. His fi rst book, Coastal Gardening in South Africa, was published by Struik Lifestyle in 2013.
