註釋Practical, attractive, and easy to maintain, ground covers work harder than any other category of plants to solve gardening problems. Unfortunately, too many people using the same half-dozen plants have given "low maintenance" a bad name. In this new book by two expert designers, you'll find photographs and practical information on more than 400 of the best new cultivars of old favorites, plus dozens of more unusual plants that make wonderful ground covers. And you'll learn to avoid those sneaky invasive plants that look great the first couple of years before taking over your garden landscape. In addition, you'll find the best plants to stabilize banks and control erosion; to substitute for turf where grass won't grow or is hard to mow; to line curbs and driveways, where salt can damage ordinary plants; to keep animals off your front yard; and to create a garden as beautiful as it is easy to maintain.--COVER.
