Color is the focus here as editor in chief of Timber Press Fischer (Perennial Companions) profiles 100 flowering garden plants in ten chapters arranged by colors (e.g., "Orange to Peach," "White to Ivory"). Fischer encourages the reader to embrace color in the garden and offers recommendations for companion plantings. Each plant entry features icons that represent light and moisture requirements, a pronunciation guide, size of the plant and bloom time, and appropriate horticultural growing zones. North American native plants are also noted.
