Wonderful book about the plants native to New England, and along its border with Canada. Beautiful photography make it easy to identify species. I really enjoyed the information about how each plant interacts with insects and wildlife.

I don't get to travel, so I love to look at the flora of places I've never been to - "Native Plants for New England Gardens" delivers exactly what it promises, a clear and concise list of Native Plants to include in your garden if you happen to live in New England. Very useful if you live in New England, great if you're a plant buff.

A nice catalog of plants that can be used in New England area or areas with similar conditions. The material is well presented and illustrated with wonderful pictures. A inspiration for the gardening season.
