Today, the reality of a “bigger is better” garden no longer holds
the same allure as a “small is beautiful” one. We’re busy, we’re
aging, and the demands of the garden can feel overwhelming. What to
do? Make smarter use of the space we have and the plants we select,
says garden expert Kerry Ann Mendez. In The Right-Size Flower
Garden, she shares her successful recipe for having a garden we can
manage and love again...the right-size, low maintenance, drought
tolerant garden. The goal is ditching 50% of the work by choosing
high-value plants and making simple design changes. You’ll learn
which plants to switch out, which ones aren’t worth the effort, and
which tools and practices will take the “chore” out of gardening.
The Right-Size Flower Garden is filled with beautiful full-color
photos, practical tips, “plant this not that” lists, and valuable
shortcuts to success.
