Great ADDITION to the LIBRARY which includes zones to 9!

This book is GREAT once you have your design in mind- when you are looking for the right plants, at the right height, with the right growth pattern in just the right color THAT WILL ACTUALLY GROW where you plan the planting!It seem most people have the easiest time choosing their specimen plantings but become lost choosing the ground cover that accents their other plantings. Many choose the same old things time and time again. This collection will allow variety and help plan for the finishing touches that accent your special plants.I would not want to part with this resource.The pictures of the individual plants are for the most part- close up to show the growth pattern, texture and color of these plants.This would make a nice gift for someone struggling with an existing landscape of trees and sod! Give the gift of INSPIRATION!
