New Naturalism: Designing and Planting a Resilient, Ecologically Vibrant Home Garden

By Kelly D. Norris

In New Naturalism, plantsman Kelly D. Norris shares his inspiring, ecologically sound vision for stylish, naturalistic plantings that mimic the wild spaces we covet, such as meadows, prairies, woodlands, and streamsides—far from the contrived, formal, high-maintenance plantings of the past. In the book, you’ll learn how to design and grow a lush, thriving garden by harnessing the power of plant layers and palettes defined by nature, not humans. Naturalistic gardens are romantically beautiful and contribute to positive environmental change by increasing biodiversity, providing a refuge for wildlife, and reconnecting humans to nature.
