<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In today's South, where fine gardening is a tradition, many homeowners and professional gardeners are discovering a vast "new" palette of plant materials--native plants. They are realizing that these native wildflowers, trees, shrubs, groundcovers, vines, and grasses are far better suited, and therefore easier to grow and maintain, than most of the imported plants that populate traditional landscapes. In this book, the authors offer an exciting vision of the many possibilities and advantages of "going native." Lavishly illustrated with more than 300 gorgeous color photographs, this book is both an introduction to more than 280 of the most familiar and easiest-to-find native plants of the South and a basic primer on how to use them effectively.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>... a big book, a beautiful book, and best of all, an important book ...--The Island Packet<br><br>... a hands-on how-to for landscaping ...--The Clarion-Ledger<br><br>... a real eye-opener for Southern growers looking for something a little bit "different" to add to their gardens ...--Carolina Gardener<br><br>... a slick book ...--The Paris Post-Intelligencer<br><br>... a wealth of information and ideas ...--Vicksburg Evening Post<br><br>... an asset for the Southern gardener.--The Atlanta Journal-Constitution<br><br>... deliciously photographed ...--Mobile Register<br><br>... gives great detail ... well written and arranged ...--Nashville Advocate<br><br>... should be on the bookshelves of all Southern gardeners and adventurous cool-zone gardeners.--Fine Gardening<br><br>... valuable ... an outstanding reference guide ... the best news: The entry for each plant is accompanied by a photograph.
