Waterscaping: Plants and Ideas for Natural and Created Water Gardens. by Judy Glattstein.

This informative Garden Book Club selection, illustrated with 32 pages of color photos, is a comprehensive guide to a beautiful form of gardening--waterscaping.

Glattstein provides useful data on identifying and classifying such wet areas as wet meadows, marshes, and pools; discusses a selection of appropriate plants (some 400 in all, including grasses, sedges, rushes, and ferns); suggests garden combinations and designs; and gives instructions for installing pools and setting up container water gardens.

She points out that gardeners no longer need large spaces for water gardening; the small backyard, the town-house patio, and the apartment terrace are all viable sites. George Cohen --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From Book News, Inc.

Distinguished from basic "how-to" books for people who want to design and install a pond (although these topics are covered), this is an information-packed reference to understanding the water characteristics of a piece of property--the subtle and profound characteristics of timing, amount, duration, and quality--and choosing plants in light of their habitat preferences and growth habits. The color photos are useful, but flat; the value of this reference does not lie in its visuals....)
