Native Ferns, Moss and Grasses: From
Emerald Carpet to Amber Wave: Serene and Sensuous Plants for the
Garden, by William Cullina With
this new volume, Cullina completes the set of stunning books on
native plants for the garden that includes Wildflowers and Native
Trees, Shrubs, and Vines. All three books combine Cullina’s fresh
and entertaining style with encyclopedic information about the
plants and specific instructions on how to grow and propagate them.
Cullina compares a garden made up of nothing but bright colors to
the detergent shelves in a supermarket, where every package screams
for attention. What makes a true garden out of a collection of
flowering plants are the ferns, mosses, and grasses that are the
verdant canvas on which nature paints its portraits. These are the
plants, he says, that bring a level of refinement and sophistication
to the garden unmatched by any flowers. Without these plants,
nothing would hold the garden together. Cullina shares information
that will make you see landscaping as never before. 320
pages, hardcover, 8.5 x 11", full-color photographs.
