About the Item

Chesapeake Gardening and Landscaping, by Barbara W. Ellis. 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. Published by The University of North Carolina Press, Chapel Hill, 2015. "What if, one step at a time, we could make our gardens and landscapes more eco-friendly? Barbara W. Ellis's colorful, comprehensive guide shows homeowners, gardeners, garden designers, and landscapers how to do just that for the large and beautiful Chesapeake Bay watershed region. This area includes Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, Washington, D.C., and part of West Virginia. Here, mid-Atlantic gardeners, from beginners to advanced, will find the essential tools for taking steps to make their gardens part of the solution through long-term planning and planting. The guide is built from the ground up around six simple but powerful principles that anyone can use: Reduce lawn, Build plant diversity, Grow native plants, Manage water runoff, Welcome wildlife, and Garden wisely. Included are detailed instructions for assessing and designing your particular garden or landscape site; choosing and caring for trees, shrubs, vines, ground covers, and flowers; and succeeding with such conditions as shade or poor soil. From rain gardens to woodland gardens, meadow gardens to wildlife gardens, and much more, this indispensable guide features more than 300 color photographs. Published in association with the Adkins Arboretum. What if, one step at a time, we could make our gardens and landscapes more eco-friendly? Barbara W.
