Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Southern gardeners will welcome this informative guide to selecting landscape plants that not only survive but also thrive in the humid summer conditions found in the southern and coastal regions of the United States. The down-to-earth advice takes the guesswork out of what plants will work where and provides imaginative techniques for both the traditional and more ecologically oriented gardener. Plant materials and their characteristics are discussed in relation to their heat zones, and readers can refer to the included American Horticultural Society Heat Zone map.
