Planting the Natural Garden by Piet Oudolf, Henk Gerritsen

4.0

Oudolf is a giant among gardeners these days, so I was definitely interested to read his book. It was somewhat underwhelming that so much of the book is plant lists. I mean, I like plants and he had some I haven’t heard of, but it wasn’t what I was expecting. As for the rest of the book, I have read enough about Oudolf that there weren’t any particular surprises in it, but he has a gentle, amusing descriptive voice.

I would use this mostly as a reference guide if I needed ideas when I was ready to put in perennials or grasses.
