Inhaltsangabe

Gardeners, like everyone, are too short on time and money to waste either on plants that only look good for a few weeks. You want hardworking, eye-catching plants that provide beauty for multiple seasons. You want powerhouse plants&;plants with colorful spring flowers and summer fruits, or summer fruits and fall foliage, or summer flowers, fall foliage and winter stems...or any combination of two or more of these desirable features. Like flowering dogwood that boasts summer flowers and fall fruit and foliage. Or honeysuckle that has fragrant spring flowers, summer and fall foliage, and fall fruit.

Powerhouse Plants by Graham Rice features multiseasonal perennials, annuals, groundcovers, vines, shrubs, and trees in profiles that include basic plant information, size, hardiness, and preferred growing conditions.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

We homeowners want to spend our hard-earned money on plants that look good for more than a few weeks&;or only a few days&;of the year. Even favorite plants can lose their charm if they look the same in every season. The best value comes from hardworking plants that truly earn their keep&;with eye-catching looks that transform themselves over two, three, or even four seasons, giving you multiple plants in one. Of course, these treasures also should be easy, hardy, and glorious performers.

A &;powerhouse plant&; is one that changes beautifully and dramatically over the seasons, with colorful spring flowers, summer fruits, and fall foliage. . . or with summer flowers, fall foliage, and winter stem color&;or some other combination of wonderful features and completely different looks. This book profiles outstanding multi-season plants from Abelia to Weigela, including perennials, annuals, groundcovers, vines, shrubs, and trees. By combining them in your yard, you can have a landscape that never looks boring or tired.

Powerhouse Plants is the indispensable guide to making sure you get the most out of your landscape&;and leave the &;slacker&; plants at the nursery.
