Description: Shade is one of the most common garden situations homeowners have, but with the right plant knowledge, you can triumph over challenging areas and learn to embrace shade as an opportunity instead of an obstacle.

Turn the darkest corner of your yard into an enticing retreat! Carey shows you how to use shade as a opportunity to be embraced, rather than a problem to solve. She introduces readers to plants that thrive without direct sunshine, and teaches techniques for designing and maintaining a shade garden.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 311-312) and index.
