Shrubs provide the foundation for a pleasing, yet low-maintenance garden. They are long-lived, have the ornamental appeal of perennials, and provide variety in color, size, shape, and texture, as well as shelter and berries for birds. Shrubs can make attractive arrangements indoors and provide seasonal variation through the entire year. Gillian Harris's illustrations are botanically correct works of art that make this book absolutely irresistible.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Because shrubs are so trouble free, people tend not to give them the respect they deserve.
