Award-winning author William Cullina's beautifully
illustrated book of "background" plants for North American
gardens
With this new volume, Cullina completes the
set of stunning books on native plants for the garden that
includes Wildflowers and Native Trees, Shrubs, and Vines.
All three books combine Cullina's fresh and entertaining
style with encyclopedic information about the plants and
specific instructions on how to grow and propagate them.
Cullina compares a garden made up of nothing but
bright colors to the detergent shelves in a supermarket,
where every package screams for attention. What makes a true
garden out of a collection of flowering plants are the
ferns, mosses, and grasses that are the verdant canvas on
which nature paints its portraits. These are the plants, he
says, that bring a level of refinement and sophistication to
the garden
