PERENNIAL
CULTURAL GUIDE FOR NORTH AMERICA - BOOK
THIS BOOK, is a comprehensive listing of 1,250-plus perennials including
tissue culture introductions grown and enjoyed throughout the United
States and Canada with complete in-depth descriptions. And it's all
available now just in time for Spring!
Full descriptions include hardiness, zone, height, spacing, color
reference, flower and foliage specifications, flowering time and
duration, soil recommendations, plant type, lighting requirements, and
placement in over
60 suggested theme gardens.
Also included are perennial plant terms, pronunciation, garden terms,
reference listing, and a four color Pictorial bookmark.
With so many gardening references, coffee table style books available,
I became frustrated like so many others looking from here to there for
information about certain perennials. One resource may have a generic
paragraph, another a shortened account, or no real mention on the
perennial I needed. Aquilegias come in so many seedling varieties, all
unique, with no real literature available except what might be found in
seed catalogs. And they change from one year to the next. So I compiled
the Almanac from all of my best resources, and my experience at raising
these hot items into an Ideal Handy Quick Reference Guide that lumps all
the pertinent information into one, easy portable dictionary. The
Almanac is 6" x 9", paperback with short, concise blocks of data about
each perennial. Not long, extensive paragraphs, but quick access to the
information desired.
A comprehensive reference guide, perfect for the home gardener,
commercial grower, landscape architect, professional landscaper,
horticultural educator or student, or garden center retailer who needs
immediate cultural information, quickly and accurately. The book is
designed to compliment the limited information found on most perennial
picture tags!
No previous horticultural background is necessary to source out or
find the desired information on a favorite or exciting perennial and the
recommended theme gardens.
Quick Answers to Common Questions
The book features an easy, alphabetical listing by common name and
botanical name. The Almanac covers most trendy, common, and uncommon
perennials available in garden centers and plant and seed catalogs in
the USA & Canada.
It
is designed to clarify common perennial questions, such as will it grow
around my deck or patio. If it isn't mentioned exactly, it's cousin is,
and you are sent into a closer orbit of similar information.
The book makes an
ideal
trend list,
grower's guide,
back pocket landscaper's tool.
It bridges the gap between what entices the perennial garden enthusiast
and their pursuit within the garden market for the new, the different,
or the unusual.
