Re: Xeriscaping Book Recommendations?


_Shade and Color with Water-Conserving Plants_, James Walters and Balbir 
Backhaus, published by Timber Press.  $39.95.

I was really tempted to buy this book even though I live in the beautiful 
Pacific Northwest.  One of the writers lives in the Phoenix area, and the 
"233 color photos" look like they were taken there.

I have a nice book that covers most of these topics;

Growing and using Herbs successfully
Betty E. M. Jacobs

Storey Communications, Inc.
Pownall Vermont 05261
ISBN 0-88266-249-x

This book is done by a lady who has run an herb farm and has a lot of tips
from that perspective.

As to Lemon thyme, she says it's used in cooking, makes a nice tea, can be
used as a house plant and in potpourri.

Summary: two green thumbs up

This is the second year my wife and I have been container
gardening, after several years of growing houseplants.  We are
going to move next month, hopefully to a home where we can have a
"real" garden.  Our inclinations are towards growing food crops
(veggies, herbs, and fruits), intending to get fresh-picked
quality, rather than to become self-sufficient.

We are in the San Francisco Bay Area, and recently picked up a
copy of the new book _Golden Gate Gardening_.  Its subtitle
claims that it is "The Complete Guide to Year-Round Food
Gardening in the San Francisco Bay Area & Coastal California".
I'm not sure I'd call any book the "complete guide" to gardening,
but _Golden Gate Gardening_ is the most useful book we've found
so far for our interests.

First and formost, the unique gardening issues of the
"Mediterranean" climate are addressed.  Mild winters and cool,
foggy summers make it possible to garden year-round, but make it
difficult to grow some traditional garden favorites successfuly.
The climate is also characterized by a delay of 45 days or more
between the summer solstice and the hottest day of the year.
While the author only mentions California (and a bit of the
Oregon coast), I believe that a similar climate prevails in the
Mediterranean area, as well as in regions of the western coasts
of Africa, South America, and Australia.

The largest section of the book is a comprehensive compendium of
vegetables, with information on growing an enormous array of both
familiar and unfamiliar crops in our region.  Herbs and fruits
are also well covered in their respective chapters.  I should
mention though, that some crops that just don't do very well in
this climate receive a rather cursory treatment; given that the
author has little experience with them, this is to be expected.

There are weaknesses in this book.  Some general gardening topics
that aren't specific to this region (eg, soil amendments, pruning
techniques) are covered less thoroughly, and readers would be
well advised to seek out the books listed in the bibliography
that cover various subjects in more detail.  Also, I would have
liked more thorough illustrations of the regional pests and
diseases, so that I don't have to reread the text as much to
identify what's ailing my crops.

_Golden Gate Gardening_ also includes quite a few recipes
scattered among the gardening information, as well as a rather
concise (but probably sufficient) treatment of both edible and
ornamental flowers.  I'm not going to get rid of my other
gardening books, but _Golden Gate Gardening_ is my favorite.

Peirce, Pam, _Golden Gate Gardening: The Complete Guide to
Year-Round Food Gardening in the San Francisco Bay Area & Coastal
California_.  Davis, CA:  agAccess, 1993, 397 pages,
illustrations by Mimi Osborne, ISBN 0-932857-10-8 (paperback).

Darin.McGrew@Eng.Sun.COM     The LORD said to him, "Who gave man his mouth?
                             Who makes him deaf or dumb?  Who gives him sight
Soli Deo Gloria!             or makes him blind?  Is it not I, the LORD?"

If you are interested in herbs, try Landscaping With Herbs. Simon and Schuster have a series of books that have great pictures of individual flowers and plants.
Believe it or not Reader's Digest has a very useful book on plants. It is printed in England.
