Pennies add up. We can all make a difference with climate change, biodiversity, and human health and wellness. This exquisitely illustrated guide to northern native plants is the first step in that journey. Anyone can follow these easy steps to creating a sustainable, lower maintenance landscape on their property.
The heart of the garden "book" contains more than 300 native plants and how they are interactive with the local ecologies for pollinators and birds. All of the information you need for planting designs are here. i.e. blooming times, sun, shade, soil, and companions plants. It doesn't require a "green" thumb.
There are so many creative places to put a native plant garden - even renters and small plots designs are included.
Are you looking for a street or neighborhood project? This is your book to get everyone excited about the birds, bees, and butterflies. What could be more enjoyable (and cheap entertainment for kids and adults ;) than to watch the wildlife - enjoy your yard too.
If you care about the environment, this is your book. It should be on everyone's favorite book shelf.
Eves-drop in on the authors talk about the book in this podcast. You might pick up a few pointers for your next landscape project.
