Den allra ljuvligaste tulpanen i min trädgård är den lilla vildtulpanen 'Turkestanica'. Den blommar tidigt med flera blommor på varje stjälk och kommer villigt tillbaka år från år. Jag tycker den är helt ljuvlig tillsammans med scillorna. Blekt gult och knalligt blått är så vackert tillsammans.&

Islamic Garden Design and Moroccan Gardens are evocative spaces. They focus on lush green planting designs, strongly scented plants and water features. Although our climate in the UK is very different, we can learn from the Islamic style of garden design and design gardens with a Moroccan influence and style, with plants that will thrive in our own climate. The Art of the Islamic Garden: An Introduction to the Design, Symbolism and Making of an Islamic Garden is a great book to read as an introduction to Islamic garden design and Moroccan garden design. It introduces gardeners to the design, symbolic meaning and planting of the traditional Islamic garden, as well as giving some practical ideas for those interested in making one for themselves - in the United Kingdom or elsewhere with a similar climate. Another great book that will introduce you to Moroccan Garden Design is this book about Majorelle Gardens of Marrakech (Small Books on Great Gardens) The Majorelle Gardens of Marrakech were laid out in the 1920s by Louis Majorelle. Louis Marjorelle was a French architect and painter renowned for his participation in both the art nouveau and art deco movements. He gave his name to the bright shade of blue lavishly used to paint the house and ornament the garden decoration. The site has been restored and replanted by the designer Yves Saint Laurent and his partner Pierre Berge in the vibrant primary colours of the original, to which they have added their personal touch. If you can't get to visit theis wonderful garden yourself, this book is the next best thing...exploring the Gardens through photographs and text, and includes garden maps and plant lists.
