Re: H. K. Morse, GARDENING IN THE SHADE


I have the 1962 edition and until George Schenk's book came out, it was
probably the best book on shade gardening. It is an excellent overall
treatment with treatments of various types of shade garden and a good
listing if plants that do well in the shade. Mine cost $2.45 back in the60's
