Shady Retreats

SHADY RETREATS is full of suggestions for making an asset out of what is often considered a liability: a shady yard, or even just a shady spot. Barbara W. Ellis embraces the possibilities of such areas, seeing them not only as welcome relief from the heat but also as delightful spaces in their own that will enhance any yard or garden. Includes suggestions for shade-tolerant plants (flowers, shrubs, vines, and trees) as well as structures, containers, and fountains. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
