Inspirational, practical, and easy to use, this book was created
with the aim of conveying the awesome diversity and beauty of
California's native plants and demonstrating how they can be
brought into ecologically sound, attractive, workable, and artful
gardens. Structured around major California plant communities -
bluffs, redwoods, the Channel Islands, coastal scrub, grasslands,
deserts, oak woodlands, mixed evergreen woodlands, riparian,
chaparral, mountain meadows, and wetlands - the book's twelve
chapters each include sample plans for a native garden design
accompanied by original drawings, color photographs, a plant list,
tips on successful gardening with individual species, and more.
Both residential and professional gardeners will learn the benefits
of going native with gardens that require less water and fewer
fertilizers, attract wildlife, engage the senses, create a sense of
place, and, at the same time, preserve our rich natural heritage.
"Designing Native California Gardens" includes: more than 600
selected native species recommended for the garden; more than 300
photographs of native plants, natural plant communities, and
residential native gardens; and, recommended places to visit for
viewing each plant community.
