Written by Donald J. Leopold, expert in horticulture, botany, forestry, and ecologyNo other single volume on native plants has such comprehensive horticultural coverage as Native Plants of the A Guide for Gardening and Conservation . Nearly seven hundred species of native trees, shrubs, vines, ferns, grasses, and wildflowers from the northeastern quarter of the United States and all of eastern Canada are included. Each plant description includes information about cultivation and propagation, ranges, and hardiness. An appendix recommends particular plants for difficult situations, as well as attracting butterflies, hummingbirds, and other wildlife.
Within a day this book became my companion, ultimate reference, manual, journal and Northeast "Bible". I no longer make purchases for seeds or plants without it. Sure, I used to use the internet for deep searches, but now I have this in depth compilation to refer to. Packed with information it has caused me to rethink my garden goals. I have been planting natives for 5 years now, but now am diving deeper into conservation and a native tea garden too. My yard has cooled down by nearly 10 degrees in some areas, I rarely need to water, and the abundance of pollinators and birds and other wildlife that have reentered my micro ecosystem is thrilling. I can tell already my semi-urban yard will further improve now with this guide, and that the pages will show wear shortly. Love it and recommend it.
