Re: New Books

Doreen,
 
Sydney Eddison has a new book out this year called Gardens to Go.  It's all about container gardening with photos by Steve Silk.  You may want to explore this one -- it's a beauty!  I've copied and pasted an excerpt from one of the on line sellers of this book FYI.

Gardens to Go: Creating and Designing a Container Garden
by Sydney Eddison

n this unique book on container gardening, accomplished gardening author and expert Sydney Eddison tells readers how to plant and grow a lush garden on any deck, terrace, balcony, or in the backyard. Container gardens are easy to maintain and require a minimum of physical effort, which makes them ideal for today’s on-the-go gardeners whether they live in the city, suburbs, or country.

In GARDENS TO GO, Eddison offers guidance on designing container gardens, including how to coordinate plants for color and texture, and how to mix and match various flora to have a beautiful garden...anywhere. There is also information on how to change your foliage for different looks from month to month. Eddison concentrates on summer gardens, but includes recommendations for plants and techniques suitable for multi-seasonal container gardens. The book's engaging layout includes sidebars with tips, a color wheel, recommended reading, sources for gardening supplies, a USDA plant hardiness zone map, and an index.

Does anyone have a new book out or one that will be out between now and
April 2006 on container gardening or houseplants?  If so, contact me
offlist.  I'm looking for books to review in Container Gardens 2006, the
magazine I'm editing.
