Native Plants of the Southeast: A Comprehensive Guide to the Best 460 Species for the Garden Description
Review
“With concise but comprehensive profiles of plants and how they might best be used in conventional garden settings, lavishly enhanced by photography by veteran wildflower photographer Will Stuart, this book should become the go-to resource for Southern gardeners eager to break out of the 'local garden center mode' and truly express their botanical individuality.”
(
Salt Magazine)
"Opens up [the] world of native plants."
(Karen Sullivan
The Charlotte Observer)
