American
Horticultural Society Complete Guide To Water Gardening
by Peter Robinson
If you find aquatic plants fascinating but aren't sure where to start,
let this thorough how-to manual be your guide. Brimming with practical
insights and photographic inspirations, the Complete Guide to Water Gardening
supplies step-by-step instructions for all types of water features, from
full-blown oriental ponds to a simple container of bog plants. Possibilities
are only as limited as your size and budget.
Proper planning is essential to good results, and this book takes it
nice and slow. Explanations are straightforward and comprehensible for
folks who have some previous home improvement experience, but for a first-ever
project, this may be biting off a bit more than you can chew. Leveling,
backfilling, laying concrete--these are a few of the details to prepare
for in adding even a small pond to your garden. You'll see your efforts
pay off quickly, though. Flourishing plants and a return of natural amphibians
are a couple of rewards in sight.
Plant selection involves a good understanding of this developing ecosystem,
and the sections concerning options and routine maintenance are specific
in the requirements of your new garden. Close-up shots of healthy plants
and systems, as well as diseases and pests, will provide an excellent education.
If you're looking for a new adventure in gardening and don't mind getting
your feet wet, this could provide just the experience you're looking for.
