Re: Win a copy of Designer Plant Combinations!

I love reading a good gardening book for recreation, especially when it is written by someone who has an ear for words as well as an eye for design. One of my favorite writers is Christopher Lloyd, and I learn a lot that translates from his estate to my small garden; the attraction is his way with words. I'd love to meet a writer new to me who combines good pictures with graphic word images. Now that I have come down to two small raised beds, I especially need help with keeping them from looking spotty with too many individual plants.
