Following up her success with Continuous Bloom, Pam focuses on small trees and shrubs for the Continuous Bloom garden. She has arranged by month of interest 272 plants that contribute multiple seasons of interest in the garden—flower, fruit, colorful foliage, evergreen, and bark/texture. Entries for each plant give you what you need to know—height, spread, foliage/habit, flower/fruit, zone, light and soil requirements, care, uses, problems, insider’s tips for success, and other plants in the garden to combine for maximum effect. Color photos and line illustrations of plants’ habits.
