Description: In Gardening on California's Coast, Ms. Monson combines her Master Gardener knowledge with her own experience creating her Japanese inspired garden. Her goal has been to provide practical information with an emphasis on gardening as a satisfying creative endeavor. Her nine chapters cover landscaping with trees, shrubs, flowers, food and ground covers; pruning and maintenance; ending with a chapter on the positive links between gardening, gardens and health. Her books provides advice for novice and experienced gardeners who garden on California's coast and in inland areas sharing California's coastal climate. Profusely illustrated with her own photographs, the book is both a practical guide and a beautiful addition to any gardener's library.
