Anyone tried this? It has a straight 5/5 at Amazon and I was thinking of giving it a go.
I've tried several garden design programs and been hugely disappointed and have resorted to brain power and the odd bit of pen and paper. I thought this might be a useful accompaniment.

found this ; Good planting design does not follow a formula. At best, it allows
you to experiment with nature and through nature to make an
original statement. As in all of the arts, the best garden designers
take risks. Only by taking risks can you come up with
something exciting and original.

birbeck college, part of the university of london, do correspondence courses in garden history, sometimes it's conducive to
start at the beginning, the roots.... etc etc. apart from that i know not your title, if i could have married/seduced a RHS book there
is a great one on companion planting, in the visual sense. researching english heritage gardens, kew, chelsea physic garden are always amazing......
not much help, but always respond to inquisitive betterment..etc etc
