This list of lists provides a methodology for finding the best plant for the place. This is the concept of "right plant, right place." The most successful garden or landscape is based on the process of defining the environment (the "place") first and then finding the "plant" or "plants" which fit that defined environment. It also points out the great wealth of plant material which we PNW'ers can use in our gardens and landscapes. The book organizes thousands of plants into general categories such as Native Plants for garden use, Basic Types (tree, shrub, perennial, etc.), Environmental Needs (sun/shade, soil type), Bloom Time, Resistances to Pests and other Problems, Ornamental Features, Design Style, and many other decision-influencing categories. It finishes with more than one hundred mail-order sources of plants, bulbs, and seeds.
