Let's Go Native From Back Yard to Bush: Landscaping with Native Plants

Over 80 per cent of New Zealand's indigenous plants are found nowhere else on Earth, offering gardeners a rich palette of textures, colours and forms perfectly suited to local conditions. In Let's Go Native, Guy Hessell draws on years of hands-on experience in New Zealand gardens to provide practical, inspiring advice for incorporating native plants into gardens of every size and style. From modern urban courtyards to sprawling lifestyle blocks - and tips on rural riparian planting - this essential guide shows you how to design and plant an attractive, low-maintenance garden that reflects the natural splendour of Aotearoa and works beautifully with your space. Featuring hand-drawn watercolour garden plans, Let's Go Native brings ideas to life and helps you visualise the full potential of your own native haven.
