Gardening in Summer-Dry Climates is the definitive handbook on the plants and practices needed to create a thriving summer-dry landscape. A comprehensive plant directory provides details on each plant's needs, and stunning photography shows how smart design can help address seasonal issues. Harlow and Holt also explain how plants adapt to the climate, how topography and climate relate, and how best to work with these conditions.
At its core, Gardening in Summer-Dry Climates encourages gardeners to understand and work in harmony with their region. By choosing naturally occurring, climate-appropriate plants, gardeners can promote healthier ecosystems and make a difference from their own backyards.
Gardening in Summer-Dry Climates can be purchased in advance from The Shop at Marin Art and Garden Center for $29.95 (available January 5). Included is a signed bookplate by the authors.
