The avid gardener will need no other resource than this book to
plan and maintain a natural garden on the country farm or in the
suburban backyard, a habitat congenial to the scarlet tanager, the
monarch butterfly, and the toad.
Unique to this book is author Beresford-Kroeger's concept of
bioplanning, in which the gardener views the site as a biological
system and the activity of gardening as an ecological task. To
assist in bioplanning a garden, the author provides both plans that
are adaptable to different garden sizes and shapes, as well as
planting instructions emphasizing organic care, ecofunction, and
environmentally friendly means of pest control.
"A Garden for Life" challenges everyone to create an
ecologically valuable garden for the joy of doing so, and for the
salvation of our natural world.
Diana Beresford-Kroeger is the author of "Arboretum America."
She is a botanist, medical and agricultural researcher, lecturer,
and self-defined "renegade scientist" in the fields of classical
botany, medical biochemistry, organic chemistry, and nuclear
chemistry. She lives in Ontario, Canada.
