Before picking up the trowel, pick up the stickers! With 150 reusable illustrated stickers — representing dozens of plant cultivars that are versatile, readily available, and suitable for most temperate growing zones — plus a fold-out design board and a book teaching five easy steps of garden design, you’ll have everything you need to create your vision of the perfect garden. The durable cling stickers, with beautiful botanically accurate illustrations, can be layered, arranged, and rearranged to try out every variation before making any plant purchases. This book-and-kit combination makes it possible to create your dream border, bed, or backyard oasis without leaving your kitchen table!

The easy-to-comprehend design concepts along with pages and pages of gorgeous — and incredibly realistic — stickers are sure to make this a favorite gardening tool.” — Rebecca Sweet, landscape designer and author of Refresh Your Garden Design with Color, Texture and Form and HarmonyInTheGarden.com
