Poolscaping

Gardening and Landscaping Around Your Swimming Pool and Spa

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Make Your Pool into a Garden Oasis Imagine transforming the swimming pool area of your backyard into a Tuscan paradise, with a broad terrace of terra-cotta tiles and beautiful clay pots spilling with flowering plants. Or maybe you'd prefer a "zero-entry" pool that lets you wade into the water as if you were wading into the surf at the beach. Poolscaping is a one-of-a-kind handbook that overflows with inspiring ideas and practical advice on how to landscape around your swimming pool and create your own private resort. For instance, why settle for spotlights when you could install fiber-optic lighting around the pool? If everyone else on the block has a diving board, why not install a waterfall? And admit it – you'd really like a spa next to your pool. Poolscaping shows you how you can design and build a luxurious paradise that suits all of your needs, right in your own backyard.
