I guess you could say it all started with an article from college, and all I had was a Xerox copy. I have held on to the same article trying to find the author. Then, after many, many years, I finally have and even found a copy of the book to buy. The author, Carlton B. Lees, and the book New Budget Landscaping, Chapter 1 "in the beginning" started my career with the outdoor world. The author takes gardens, landscapes, and the natural environment and shows us how we can create rooms, living environments, into our own backyards. History shows how we have manipulated our taste or desire. And the planet has a way of paying us back, one way or another. So, as we turn to work with nature and not against her, let's consider how we can achieve satisfaction for ourselves and this wonderful planet we call home.
He uses words - use, comfort, pleasure, villa, area, space, outer space, organization, chaos, room, and garden - to describe the garden.
We need to understand these words to sculpt, create, and make sense of our environment or make sense of the chaos and turn it into a living area to enjoy by humans and nature.
James Rose, a landscape architect, says, "being inside a garden should be like being inside a piece of sculpture."
This book will focus on how to achieve this with low water plants to help conserve the planet's supply and still have beauty, function, form, and balance.
In 1999 as an undergrad, I wrote an article titled "Xeriscaping for New England," and until now have slowly been trying to put this book together, so here we go.
