This photo-packed resource was intended as a take-home for attendees at Evelyn Hadden's talks. It presents inspiring examples of Rain Gardens, Boulevard Gardens, Stroll Gardens, Herb Gardens, and many other ideas to replace any stretch of lawn. It won a silver medal in Independent Publisher's 2009 Living Now Book Awards.

The ideas are arranged into five over-arching strategies for eliminating lawn: where to start, functional landscapes, garden rooms, lawn alternatives, and lawnless landscapes.

This book is currently out of print.

"A wonderful book for property owners to browse for ideas."
