Shrubs & Hedges by Eva Monheim

Shrubs & Hedges by Eva Monheim

This book came out in March of this year, and the subtitle is  Discover, Grow, and Care for the World's Most Popular Plants.

Washington Gardener said this book is "...clear enough for beginners, detailed enough for pros."

Ruth Rogers Clausen wrote,

"Shrubs and hedges are often taken for granted by professional horticulturists and garden owners alike. However, this invaluable book celebrates them, with readable and fascinating details about a range of species suitable for individual locations. The author’s passion and experience shine through the text. Detailed information is included for each cultivar, hybrid, and/or selection, its suitability for specific sites, sound growing and pruning tips, and its place in ecological landscapes, along with tool care, reference material, and more. Undoubtedly Shrubs & Hedges will become a significant reference book for years to come."
