Chinese Garden of Friendship

Description

Unique IDLIB-00019901Alternative titlePruning manual for the Chinese Garden of FriendshipDateBetween 1st January 2020 and 31st December 2020Date qualifieryear onlyDescriptionThe Chinese Garden of Friendship Pruning Guide by Ken Lamb is more than just a book about pruning. It investigates and reveals the why, how and when to prune and in what style in relation to the larger garden in the context of the meaning and philosophy of Chinese gardens.
As one journeys into the Chinese Garden of Friendship the changing scenic treatment determines the form of trees, beginning in formal courtyards and rising up to the wild mountain style of the Gurr. Pruning in scale and hiding and revealing views is influenced by the Feng Shui to ensure the energy flow, or Qi, is preserved.
With examples of Chinese gardens from China, Hong Kong, Australia and the USA, this is a significant book for horticulturalists, garden managers, designers, penjing enthusiasts and people who love trees and gardens.
