Happy to own this book,

This review is from: 100 Easy-to-Grow Native Plants For Canadian Gardens (Paperback)
I have found this little book an invaluable reference over the past two years. It is easy to read, the photos are clear, and she gives you just the right amount of information to be inspired and get planting. There are actually many more than the 101 plants in the title, which you'll find in her companion plant section. Recommended.

This review is from: 100 Easy-to-Grow Native Plants For Canadian Gardens (Paperback)
This book is excellent for new and experienced gardeners who want to plant with native plants. It is well illustrated with photographs and contains extensive information on all 101 plants( She throws in one extra). I have used many of these plants in my garden with great success and I hope you will try them too. They look great, are low maintenance and attract wildlife- birds bees butterflies and even deer. Improve your garden and help maintain the planet's diversity. It's win-win.
