Under the tagline "the art of sustainable landscape design", The Design of Gardens is a resource site by the contemporary garden designer, Mark Laurence, who is based in West Sussex, UK. Intended to be "an information-based site for you to gain help and inspiration for your garden", the content is rich, interesting and regularly updated, and includes articles about sustainability, sections of design and construction notes, original book reviews and a blog. The site itself is easy to navigate, attractively designed, and profusely illustrated throughout. Awarded a Sapling Commendation. [GAS, 3 Feb 2012].

Garden Forever

http://www.gardenforever.com/




Garden Forever is a US-based site that describes itself as the "ultimate gardening resource", with content "carefully created and compiled to bring out the gardener in every one of us". The site's design is a little dated, but there's no arguing with the ambition and value of its content. The homepage is packed with links to Garden Forever's articles and tips pages, and there are also sections of book reviews and (US-focused) links. An impressive resource, awarded a Sapling Commendation. [GAS, 3 Feb 2012].
