The idea is not to copy nature, but to give a feeling of nature.
​Piet Oudolf
 




Piet Oudolf, Probably the most famous naturalistic garden designer and a great source of inspiration. 
Among all his great work, we highly recommend his book written in 2013 with Noel Kingsburry, Planting, a new perspective.

Dr Noel Kingsburry,  Author of many books. Noel has a great Blog and website where you will find lots of references and links for a much deeper understanding of perennials and naturalistic design. I also lately really enjoyed the lecture of his very original book, Garden Flora, The natural and cultural history of plants in your garden.

Thomas Rainer, Landscape architect from the US. In 2015 Thomas wrote a great book with Claudia West : Planting in a post- wild world, which shows an approach and philosophy similar to ours. An approach based on a meaningful and sustainable design as well as a reflection and Nature and Culture, Landscape and History. 
Here is the link to his blog : www.landscapeofmeaning.blogspot.ca

For a good methodology to learn and identify plants we recommend the book of Thomas J. Elpel. Botany in a day, the patterns method of plants identification. Hops Press

Travis Beck, Principal of ecological landscape designs. Excellent source of information and a reference book.
