Conifers are among the most beautiful and versatile of all
landscape plants, offering year-round variety of colour, form, and
texture. They remain underutilised in the South, in part because of
the common misconception that they are not adaptable to the
climate. Laying such claims to rest, this book introduces readers
to conifers that grow successfully in southern landscapes.
Gardeners in the South traditionally have relied on the mass of
spectacular spring blooms as the mainstay of their landscapes.
However, with the addition of conifers or cultivars of the genus
ginkgo, homeowners can enjoy twelve months of low maintenance
color. Tom Cox and John Ruter present a variety of conifers that
grow from Virginia to Florida to Texas. They provide tips on
growing, pruning, preventing disease and pest problems, and on
proper selection and cultivation requirements-all unique to the
Southeast. In short, this guide includes essential information
about what to buy, where to plant it, and how to maintain it. It
also offers advice on what to expect from mature conifers and
ginkgo while suggesting genera and species that have proved
adaptable and cultivars that have performed well in the
southeastern United States. Landscaping with Conifers and Ginkgo
for the Southeast is a compilation of years of research and
horticulture experience that will aid anyone, whether novice or
professional, in creating beautiful year-round landscapes.
