## Description

Before it was restored, the High Line was an untouched, abandoned landscape overgrown with wildflowers. Today it is much more than that; it’s a central plaza, a cultural center, a walkway, and a green retreat in a bustling city that is free for all to enjoy. But above all else, it is a beautiful, dynamic garden with plantings designed by Piet Oudolf, one of the world’s most extraordinary garden designers. Gardens of the High Line , by Piet Oudolf and Rick Darke, offers an in-depth view into the planting designs, plant palette, and maintenance of this landmark achievement. It reveals a four-season garden that is filled with native and exotic plants, drought-tol­erant perennials, and grasses that thrive and spread. It also offers inspiration and advice to home gardeners and garden designers looking to recreate its iconic, naturalistic style. Featuring stunning photographs by Rick Darke and an introduction by Robert Hammond, the founder of the Friends of the High Line, this large-trim, photo-driven book is a must-have for anyone who appreciates the nature of design.

Review: Binding :) - Just got my book and looking intently at the binding and I believe the issue has been fixed - gorgeous book! I will update if anything occurs..... Ok - I’m reading - these pages are gorgeous and HEAVY - each one of them 320 PAGES - it doesn’t seem bad but they do pull away a bit from he binding but they are sewn together so it’s holding To be honest the quality of this book is gorgeous and outstanding and because of that I don’t care if it does pull away - the pages are heavy glossy and A+ I’ll let you know at the end of it holds up! OK - I am more than halfway thru and yes it separated a bit - but honestly I don’t care - once you feel how heavy the pages are and the book, it’s not surprising... LOVE THIS BOOK! Omg I want to create the high line here on my 5 acres!
Review: The importance of putting together the right plant with the location. - Wonderful explanations of the different gardens and the colored pictures were great. You realize how grasses are so important to the landscape and the wildlife. It's a must see garden. New York is very lucky.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The importance of putting together the right plant with the location.
*by M***N on June 28, 2018*

Wonderful explanations of the different gardens and the colored pictures were great. You realize how grasses are so important to the landscape and the wildlife. It's a must see garden. New York is very lucky.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A masterpiece of a project. The photos in the book are STUNNING
*by T***A on July 7, 2025*

This book is one of many written by Piet Oudolf. Page after page of STUNNING photos. I would recommend this to everyone. Even if you haven’t visited the High Line, which I have many times, the book takes you there with breathtaking photos.
