"Most gardeners hoping to create attractive gardens think first of flowers. But plants have so many other appealing features which add color and shape and texture to bring life to our lives and our gardens. Every feature of a plant, from its emerging spring shoots to its lofty maturity, has the potential to bring us interest and admiration – or just pure color.

"But why stop at plants that do just one thing, have just one appeal? Why not choose plants that have more than one season of interest - Powerhouse Plants. These are plants that combine two, three or even four entirely different features so that, at different times of the year, different displays are revealed at the same place in the garden – from just one plant."

Fantastic Resource and Good Read I love this book. I recently began building a hedgerow in my front yard to help with noise, light pollution, vagabond deterrent, bird hummingbird butterfly attractor, and overall privacy screen ---- clearly a job for powerhouse plants. This book has been and continues to be a wonderful aid in my plant selection process. It also has care and site requirements that has taken a lot of stress out of how to begin my planting plan. Love it, would buy for friends and family.” Amazon.com customer review
