This guide compiles vital information for gardeners in the unique climates of the mid-Atlantic area, including Virginia, West Virginia, District of Columbia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and southern New York and Long Island.

This book includes valuable expert advice, a list of hot and cold tolerance zones for each plant, web sites for information from state universities in the region, and a listing of botanical gardens and arboreta in which to view the listed plants. It also contains a host of helpful lists including trees for tough urban streets; plants that tolerate road and seaspray salt; storm tolerant and intolerant trees; and the “top tens”—regional favorites as selected by area plant societies.

Frustrated gardeners in New York and the mid-Atlantic states will be ready to start planting again when they read recommendations collected by gardening experts in this easy-to-understand volume. It’s a must for any serious gardener digging in the dirt of the eastern seaboard.
