Kerstin Ouellet serves up the tasty morsels of information you've been
hungering for – design considerations when creating combos, as well as
production techniques and parameters, including container selection,
media, nutrition, light, growth regulators, pest and disease control,
shipping, and even scheduling. Also, charts in the back of the book show
which plants are compatible for harmonious arrangements in full sun,
partial shade, and full shade.

A cookbook wouldn't be complete without recipes. Here you'll find 60
recipes for stunning hanging baskets, patio planters, and window boxes.
Each recipe features a full colour photo of the finished planting, a
diagram showing how to arrange the plants, and of course, the plant
"ingredients." Plus, you'll find production costs for each combo and a
suggested wholesale price for each garden.

For more information or to buy the book, visit the Annex Bookstore.
