What to grow: the plants, divided into those that play a permanent role and temporary visitors.

Making pictures: how to arrange and compose pots to show them off at their best.

A gallery of inspiration: page after page of glorious container plantings, some themed (e.g., seaside, woodland), some simply a celebration of the season, all displaying the freshness and relaxed charm that makes them different.
