Growing the Northeast Garden - 9781604694963

A gardener’s plant choices and garden style are almost completely linked to the place in which they garden. And to successfully grow a range of beautiful ornamental plants, every gardener must know the specifics of their region’s climate, soil, and geography. Growing the Northeast Garden, by garden designer Andrew Keys, offers all this and more.

Gardeners in the northeast are lucky—their regular summer rain, gorgeous summer blooms, and stunning fall color make it an ideal place to garden. But there are drawbacks, like hot and humid summers, bitterly cold winters, and mosquitos. This practical yet beautiful handbook starts with a comprehensive overview of the weather and geography of the area, along with regionally specific advice on zones, microclimates, soil, pests, and maintenance. Profiles of the best trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals, and bulbs offer hundreds of plant suggestions, along with complete information on growth and care. For home gardeners in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, southern Quebec and Montreal, southeast Ontario and Ottawa, and the Maritime Provinces.
