Tropical gardens are man-made paradises on earth: The seductive perfume of exotic flowers, gently splashing water and unimaginable shades of colors provide the beholder with the setting for a dream. Since many are privately owned, this publication allows readers to look behind the gates and to discover the stunning beauty of some of the most magnificent tropical gardens of the world. These veritable lands of wonder betray the sure instinct and eye for details as well as the botanical knowledge of their landscape architects and gardeners. In addition to the creative arrangement of plants and trees, lakes and creeks with other natural treasures, the selected gardens show numerous ways of how added elements such as bridges, gazebos and garden furniture enhance the enchanting environment and accommodate the human visitor. Review: Tropical Gardens: Hidden Exotic Paradises, a book I will always enjoy. - I rated this book so highly because I love tropical gardens and I love tropical plants. This book shows the best of both in the photographs of the tropical gardens represented. They are truly exotic paradises to me. This is the kind of book I can return to many times and never get tired of looking at it. Review: The best Tropical Gardens'book that I have ever bought - I am a Garden Designer based in South America, and believe me, of all the Tropical Garden Design books that I have browsed, this is the best. The gardens featured in the book are exquisite and amazing. Without a doubt, the most beautiful Tropical Gardens there are. For anyone looking for inspiration, this is the book to buy.

Squares and concrete
Subtitel "Hidden Exotic Paradises" promises heartwarming dreams. Instead pages are full of square pools, concrete paths, 5star hotel kitsch. It should have been named Achitectural digest as it seems, that architects had been contacted to submit fotos of their latest projects. Layout is also a bit confusing and the descriptions short and superficial. Well - everyone his paradise, mine is more sensual.

This book is a wonderful explore around the world of tropical gardens. Every featured garden has a landscape plan and information on the plants chosen. Beautiful pictures.

Consigliato agli amanti dei giardini tropicali
Interessante panoramica mondiale correlata di belle immagini, ma l’aspetto botanico/scientifico è poco curato

Not a garden book
This is a book about tropical swimming pools, not gardens.
