Description

|
|
|
"[Marty] Wingate provides numerous options for gardeners who want to create oases of safety from contemporary intrusions.... 'Buffers' moderate temperature extremes, wind, noise, and the neighbors' kids. Trees and shrubs provide shade and insulation, and yards gain privacy and serenity with water features, mixed-planting hedgerows, and terraces of mounded shrubs. 'Barriers' include berms, prickly hedges, and fencing—some living, such as shaped or espaliered permanent tree structures. Screening with visual interest, such as lattices supporting climbing roses, spell relief from unwanted views. Tips on plant choices and abundant full-color photos and illustrations complement listings of further readings and resources, conversion tables and plant hardiness zones, and a detailed index to create a comprehensive guide for turning a yard into a haven."—Booklist
