Now is the time to save our natural plant heritage—before it’s too late. In Back to Eden, Frank Porter rediscovers the plants that once covered our landscapes and teaches us the secrets of how to propagate and grow these botanical treasures. This book is for beginners, as well as the experienced. Here you’ll:
Learn how to establish a native plant garden.
Read about the silent garden invaders.
Discover how to make a rain garden.
Grow your garden without fertilizer.
Understand the importance of using native grasses and plants.
The information in this book applies to states extending from Maine to Florida and east of the Mississippi River. Many species are common throughout this vast area. Others are restricted to particular geographic regions. You will discover new plants to incorporate into your garden.
