The book Landscape Architecture begins with contextually rooted historic gardens that celebrate the cultures, art and nature. It covers landscape policy, planning and design and explains the synthesis of sustainability principles, ecology, climate, botany, geology, hydrology and aesthetics. The natural processes of bio-diversity, forestry, aquatic and riverine ecology have a relationship with local culture, climate and abatement of pollution. The greening of the brownfields to make the cities more sustainable are the major challenges, which the book covers. The concepts of drainage, greenways, streetscaping, micro-gardening, xeriscaping, urban farming and play environment have been explained in detail. The book also covers nursery, horticulture, planting design and symbolic language of flowers.
