I am extremely happy to read how Nigel Dunnett views nature, composition, urban planting, and relieved that he does not sacrifice color to form as often seems to happen in contemporary natural gardens. This is a beautifully written book, walking a line of prose so nicely spoken that in places it feels like poetry. But it is quite practical and not afraid to get down into details with boots on the ground examples. The stages of nature nature system that borrows Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and modifies it to suggest a model for planting design is so naturally sensible. Dunnett offers a venn diagram for contemporary naturalism: impressionistic, technocratic, and modernistic with a center sweet spot, this begins a solid essay on the directions of recent garden design growing out of several contemporary directions, and concludes with "The Way Forward" which pivots into an important, sometimes missing component in naturalistic planting "Reading Nature." Lots to see and learn here, even more to think on. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting and practical approach to design *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 23 November 2021* Loved this book! It was just what I was looking for. I read it cover to cover in a day (which I wasn't intending to!); useful tips and planning guides for naturalistic planting. Beautifully illustrated with pictures that capture the practical application of the design principles. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 31 March 2019* An exceptional book that I have read cover to cover; Superb photos that beautifully expand the ideas in the text - the clearest explanation that I have read of the subject (as you'd expect!) and I now feel equipped to 'have a go' with confidence in my garden - previously I knew that I loved naturalistic planting but was overwhelmed by the 'what to do first.' I was galvanised and ordered Pictorial Meadow seed after the first couple of chapters. ## Frequently Bought Together - Naturalistic Planting Design - Planting in a Post-Wild World: Designing Plant Communities for Resilient Landscapes - Planting: A New Perspective --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/284965624-filbert-press-naturalistic-planting-design-the-essential-guide](https://www.desertcart.be/products/284965624-filbert-press-naturalistic-planting-design-the-essential-guide) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-09-21*
