The Indestructible Houseplant 200 Beautiful Plants That Everyone Can Grow
TOVAH MARTIN | PHOTOGRAPHY BY KINDRA CLINEFF We all need nature in our lives, yet most of our time is spent indoors. So we bring nature in by adding houseplants—but how do we choose the right ones? How do we keep them alive? By making the right choices from the beginning. The Indestructible Houseplant, by garden writer Tovah Martin, eliminates the guesswork by highlighting indoor plants that are tough, beautiful, reliable, and readily available. Like hoya, a low-maintenance plant whose spectacular spring and summer blossoms actually thrive on neglect. Or Ficus elastica (also known as rubber tree), whose pink and gray leaves will brighten even the most challenging, windowless environment. And castiron plant, an old favorite that remains beautiful in a shady corner, even after weeks without water. In addition to plant profiles with concise information on water, light, and blooming times, this gorgeous book includes tips on care, maintenance, and ideas for combining houseplants in eye-catching indoor displays. Stunning color photographs offer inspiration for incorporating houseplants into a variety of décors. 2

How Plants Work The Science Behind the Amazing Things Plants Do LINDA CHALKER-SCOTT Why would container plants wilt when they’ve been regularly watered? Why didn’t the hydrangea that thrived last year bloom this year? Why won’t slugs eat weeds instead of wiping out the vegetable garden? Plant physiology—the study of how living things function—can solve these and most other problems gardeners regularly have. In How Plants Work horticulture expert and professor Linda Chalker-Scott uncovers the mysteries of how and why plants do the things they do. This accessibly written guide covers the science behind plants from the ground up, with information on cells, roots, nutrition, light, and reproduction. A basic understanding of plant physiology can help gardeners tremendously—knowing how mulch works can lead to a reduction in weeds; learning when and where it is best to prune will reduce the need to prune in the future. It can also save time and money; an understanding of the science of plants can help gardeners know what garden products are worth trying and which are best left on the shelf. This helpful and enthusiastic guide arms gardeners of all levels with the knowledge they need to be better, smarter gardeners.

The Gardener’s Guide to Weather and Climate MICHAEL ALLABY
All gardeners are at the whim of Mother Nature, and most are obsessed with weather. When is the last frost? What is the chance for rain? Will late-spring hail affect my flower beds? The answers to questions like these play a significant role in a gardener’s success. The Gardener’s Guide to Weather and Climate gives home gardeners an accessible yet comprehensive overview of how the weather works, and offers tips on how to use the information to create better gardens. The book begins with a primer on climate and moves on to cover climate change, weather, microclimates, and how plants are affected by the climate and their environment. Throughout, the reader will find hundreds of helpful color photographs and illustrations that bring the concepts to life. Though climate change is a serious threat, this useful book remains positive and upbeat in its approach. It shows that instead of gardening at the mercy of the weather, knowledgeable gardeners can make the weather work for them.

Moss provides year-round color, excels in difficult situations, is pest and disease resistant, and helps with soil erosion and stormwater runoff. Then, the basics of gardening with moss are provided, with tips on designing with moss, planting a moss garden, and maintenance. Profiles of enchanting moss gardens throughout the country and lush color photographs bring the world of bryophytes alive.

The Plants and Ecology of the World’s Semi-Arid Regions DENVER BOTANIC GARDENS Steppes are giant grasslands, defined not only by their plants, but also by the geology and climate that created them. They comprise enormous areas on four continents and are where a huge number of staple crops and garden plants originated.

Steppes surveys all of the world’s steppe regions—including areas in North America, Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America—and highlights the plants in each, along with climatic and geological descriptions of each area. The plants of these regions have inspired some of the most important garden designers of our time, including Piet Oudolf, Tom Stuart Smith, Wolfgang Oehme, and James Van Sweden. This important reference is for professionals, highly knowledgeable gardeners, and students of botany and horticulture.

Daffodil
[front flap] US$00.00 Daffodils are the quintessential spring flower, their arrival in our gardens, parks, and woodlands a sure sign that winter is drawing to a close. Their popularity and resilience have gained them a foothold in many corners of the globe, where enthusiasts have experimented with their basic trumpetand-petal design to raise over 25,000 cultivars in every imaginable shade of yellow. As much a symbol of renewal and vitality as a garden plant, daffodils have colonized paintings, ceramics, and poetry and become a metaphor for the relationship between humans and nature, their wildness and optimistic spirit brightening our homes in the dark days of winter.

This book charts the remarkable story of the daffodil from the tombs of the Pharaohs, through pre-Darwin evolutionary theory, to Cornwall’s burgeoning bulb business and diversification efforts by breeders seeking the definitive bloom. Today’s gardeners have a rich palette including the pink-cupped Backhouse hybrids, the star-like ‘Firebrand’ bred by Engleheart, and P. D. Williams’s ‘Killigrew’, described as “perfect in form, balance, and quality.” Garden cultivation notes, descriptions, and recommendations introduce the delights of the less well-known daffodils such as the fragrant Jonquils and windswept Narcissus cyclamineus without neglecting the classics such as
