How and Where to Grow Flowers

All you really need is a comprehensive Plant Guide or Encyclopedia of plants and flowers for your region of the country.

These books are usually broken down by types and/or size of plants and easy to use.

You need a small tree that will be sitting in a full sun, but windy area? No problem.

Xeriscaping for low maintenance/low water use? No problem.

They offer sections on diseases and infestation control, as well as proper planting, pruning and maintenance techniques.

And, they list all variations within a specific plant (such as a rose, giving the scietific names as well as the common ones).

Amazon is the place to browse for the best ones. User comments help with your decision, easily.
