Laura's Favorite Picks
I took a native plant landscaping class at Theodore Payne Foundation and this book really helped me select the right plant for the right place in my design....it's my go -to book for native planting!
I recently purchased this book and love the attention to native plant details!
It describes each CA native plant; how to successfully grow them in your landscape, and the companion plants that help support them.
My family spent hours during the stay-at-home quarantine, sitting in our backyard identifying
our native bees using
this book!
It also gives you suggestions on what flowers to plant in your garden for improve
pollination.
If you like watching and attracting butterflies, hummers and native bees this book is a motivator. Stories of gardeners and their creative habitat gardens.
I like to include both native and non natives for seasonal color and help provide
year-around nectar
plants for my hummers and butterflies and this book does it all!
