Re: Win a copy of Designer Plant Combinations!

We are re-doing an acreage garden that is filled with a wide variety plants, many of which are not suitable for the site. It would be simple to destroy and start over but I just can't bring myself to do that. So, one-by-one we dig up and give away plants that we have determined not to keep in the mix. An arduous process. This book sounds like a helpful tool for the next steps.
