Native Texas Plants : Landscaping Region by Region
- Book Review,
by Sally Wasowski


From Publishers Weekly
A solid reference work for gardeners throughout the south, Dallas-based landscaper Wasowski's second book offers more extensive coverage than her first ( Landscaping with Native Texas Plants ) of detailed landscape plans for regions from East Texas to El Paso and north to the Panhandle. Included are thorough climatic and soil type information, as well as an authoritative plant material list for Southern native plants. Though Wasowski includes common trees, shrubs and vines, she has dug deeper to compile a rich assortment of native ground covers, grasses, annuals and plants that will grow in water or bog gardens. And while the author's accessible prose primarily addresses the needs of Texas homeowners, her guide should also prove useful to professional out-of-state landscapers planning Texas sites. Illustrations not seen by PW. Copyright 1988 Reed Business Information, Inc.


Book Description
