This book was written and organized to assist the landscape architect, landscape designer, or homeowner in the selection of the proper plants to be used in a landscape design. It is intended to
be a quick and easy-to-use reference to help in choosing plant species and varieties. After completing a design analysis, the designer can evaluate all of the critical site requirements and
apply that information to the plant selection process. The plant lists in this book were taken from catalogs of the major wholesale suppliers to the industry, from across the country in zones
3-6. The list is by no means complete, and availability of particular cultivars could vary from region to region.
