Download or read book Wild Suburbia written by Barbara Eisenstein and published by Heyday Books. This book was released on 2016 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wild Suburbia guides us through the process of transforming a traditional, high water-use yard into a peaceful habitat garden abounding with native plants. Author Barbara Eisenstein emphasizes that gardening is a rewarding activity rather than a finished product, from removing lawns and getting in touch with a yard's climate to choosing plants and helping them thrive. Supplementing her advice with personal stories from her decades of experience working with native plants, Eisenstein illuminates the joys of tending a native garden--and assures us that any challenges, from managing pests to disapproving neighbors, should never sap the enjoyment out of a pleasurable and fulfilling hobby. For plant lovers curious about their own ecosystems, Wild Suburbia offers a style of gardening that nurtures biodiversity, deepens connection to place, and encourages new and seasoned gardeners alike to experiment and have fun.

Download or read book California Wild Flower Seeds List No 5 Classic Reprint written by Lester Rowntree and Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Wild Flower Seeds: List No. 5 As an aid to the grower we have in some cases added the species habitat. When no habitat is noted the plant is found throughout California. Plants widely distributed are native also outside the Pacific Coast region. Alti' tude is given as an indication of hardiness. We have stated plants to be hardy in other localities only when we have had specific reports to that effect. We will appreciate receiving such reports on the adaptability of California native plants to various climates and countries. Heights given are average. Plants are perennial unless otherwise indicated. California annuals are best in effect when massed and are well adapted for use in eastern gardens, where they should be sown as soon as frost is over. Most of them require good drainage, light soil, shallow sowing and little water when established. Note special quantity prices for certain species of wild flower seed for naturalizing.

Download or read book Mini Meadows written by Mike Lizotte and published by Storey Publishing, LLC. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word “meadow” conjures images of wide expanses of land, but a mini meadow — a kind of informal flower garden started with seed sown directly into the soil — can be any size; plus, it’s fun, easy to grow, and good for the planet. With as little as 50 square feet and for less than $20, gardeners can plant a colorful meadow that demands little in the way of space, mowing, or maintenance, uses less water than a traditional lawn, and provides habitat for pollinators — not to mention a natural exploration space for children. From choosing the right variety of seeds, preparing the soil, sowing evenly, and watering well, author Mike Lizotte guides readers through the process of successfully creating a miniature meadow that suits their climate, soil, and growing goals, whether planting to beautify a hellstrip, halt erosion, fill a boggy spot, or establish a nesting area for bees and butterflies. Mini Meadows offers gardeners of all levels the keys to creating, caring for, and reaping the rewards of thriving meadows through the seasons, year after year.

Download or read book California s Fading Wildflowers written by Richard A. Minnich and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2008-06-18 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early Spanish explorers in the late eighteenth century found springtime California covered with spectacular carpets of wildflowers from San Francisco to San Diego. Yet today, invading plant species have devastated this nearly forgotten botanical heritage. In this lively, vividly detailed work, Richard A. Minnich synthesizes a unique and wide-ranging array of sources—from the historic accounts of those early explorers to the writings of early American botanists in the nineteenth century, newspaper accounts in the twentieth century, and modern ecological theory—to give the most comprehensive historical analysis available of the dramatic transformation of California's wildflower prairies. At the same time, his groundbreaking book challenges much current thinking on the subject, critically evaluating the hypothesis that perennial bunchgrasses were once a dominant feature of California's landscape and instead arguing that wildflowers filled this role. As he examines the changes in the state's landscape over the past three centuries, Minnich brings new perspectives to topics including restoration ecology, conservation, and fire management in a book that will change our of view of native California.
