The Rhode Island Gardener's Companion: An Insider's Guide to Gardening in Rhode Island
Although Rhode Island is the smallest of the 50 states, residents do not necessarily garden in the same conditions nor share the same hardiness zone. "The Rhode Island Gardener's Companion" addresses the issues of soils, salt, wind, weather, and other challenges. For example, proven tips for gardening on saltwater come from Blithewold Mansion, Gardens & Arboretum, one of only two arboreta in the country situated on saltwater. With this book Rhode Islander gardeners will learn how to lengthen the growing season through careful plant selection, developing microclimates, and using season-extending products. Chapters on lawns, vegetables, flowers, and trees give detailed cultivation information and list specific varieties of plants proven to flourish in different areas of Little Rhody.
