Summary: Good basic information for shrubs
Comment: I'm a transplanted FL gardener and I really enjoyed this book! I keep reviewing it constantly since I'm adding more and more plants to my landscape. I wish it had more information on each plant, but it's still a good basic book.

Summary: The gardening rules are different here.
Comment: Yankee transplants to the Sunshine state as well as present state residents moving from Tallahassee to West Palm Beach or from Jacksonville to Sarasota can learn much about the unique problems inherent in establishing and maintaining shrubs on a Florda homesite. In addition to reviewing the basics of shrub planning, authors Gilman and Black provide a complete guide to what plantings will work best throughout the state, which they divide into six different hardiness zones. They also point out which plantings work best or worst in sandy or wet soil or in areas exposed to salt. Helpful hints are offered on when and how to plant, when to water and when and how to trim. In addition to the clear, concise copy, the book supplies beautiful color photographs of 172 different shrub varieties. Know what your landscape service is recommending!
No Florida homeowner -- present or prospective -- should be without this book.
