Plants For A Future

Plants For A Future

Plants For A Future: Edible & Useful Plants For A Healthier World offers invaluable information on creating natural gardens, woodlands, and farms that are in harmony with nature's ecosystems, and contain a wide variety of easily grown perennials and selfseeding annuals that are delicious and healthy food stocks for human consumption. Complete descriptions are provided for edible and other useful plants which are native to both Britain and Europe, and from temperate areas around the world (including the United States).

These are edible plants suitable for an ornamental garden, lawns, shady areas, ponds, walls, hedges, agroforestry, and conservation projects. Author Ken Fern shares his experiments and successes in growing herbs, vegetables, flowers, shrubs and trees. Enhanced with b/w and color photography, Plants For A Future is an enthusiastically recommended, "reader friendly", compendium of information, personal anecdotes, and enriched for the gardener and horticulturalist with detailed appendices and indexes.
