A gorgeous celebration of the shade garden--featuring nearly 300 perennials, annuals, bulbs, ferns, ornamental grasses, and climbing plants that will thrive without direct sunlight
A shaded garden can be a soothing sanctuary that even the most dedicated sun worshipper can welcome on a hot summer day. But how do you get plants to grow in a spot where trees and shrubs hide the sun? In this stunning volume, garden expert Larry Hodgson shows how to create a lush and lovely garden filled with plants that will flourish in the shade.

The first part covers the basics of shade gardening, including planning, planting, and problem-solving. Here readers will find out how to use shade-tolerant grasses and groundcovers for the root-filled areas under trees; discover solutions for dry shade and heavy needle and leaf drop; and learn what to do if a tree should fall and a shade garden is suddenly thrust back in the sun. The second part is devoted to an encyclopedia of shade-loving plants.

Complete with expert designs for five different kinds of shaded gardens, Making the Most of Shade is a splendid new gardening title by the popular author of Perennials for Every Purpose, which Susan McClure, author of Easy-Care Perennial Gardens, called "a treasure . . . the next best thing to having a friendly expert whispering in your ear as you plan, plant, and perfect your perennial garden."

Perfect for small dogs!
Color: Spider
These are so cute. My 10 pound Havanese absolutely loves these. They are the perfect size for her. I couldn’t put them away with the Halloween decor because she carries them everywhere. She has one in the bed, one in the car and one for around the house. Very durable and fun for her.

Colorful, Durable, and Totally Adorable! Perfect for Halloween
Color: Bats, Color: Bats
I absolutely love these bats! I’ve bought them multiple times and still adore them… they add such a fun, whimsical touch to my Halloween displays. The colorful wings give them a unique charm you just don’t get with typical black bat props. The quality is impressive too: even after a couple of rainy outdoor seasons, my first two sets are still holding up great. And yes… I know they’re technically dog toys, but my pups already have plenty of playthings… I’m pretty sure they don’t mind!
