Shade Perennials

Timber Press Pocket Guides
by W. George Schmid

Rich with descriptions and illustrations of more than 1,000 readily available species and cultivars that will enliven and thrive in your shade garden, this easy to read pocket guide is the ideal handy reference to shade perennials. You will find definitions of shade intensities; information about plant cultivation, maintenance, and pests and diseases; as well as lists of plants for specific landscape uses that will bring color to the shade garden throughout the year. Also included is a list of specialty nursery sources that carry shade perennials.

Anyone who gardens in the Northeast with its canopy of deciduous trees is going to find this reference indispensable. The flexibinding and compact size make it perfect for taking along to a good garden store—say, Shop in the Garden!—so you can check plants out before forking over the dough.
