In this complete reference to integrating edible plants into a wide range of private and public landscapes; landscape designer Cheryl Beesley thoroughly answers the questions of how to plant; where to plant; and what to plant. She covers garden layout; bed construction; and fencing options and offers specific design examples for a wide variety of possibilities for edible landscapes; such as a schoolyard; restaurant; or residence. She presents an extensive pallet of edible plant choices for Texas arranged by trees; shrubs; perennials; and annuals and includes detailed information about plant families as well as individual plants. Appendixes instruct readers on disease and insect control; additional variety selections; and plant and seed sources. As the author points out; however they are incorporated; vegetables and fruitsmdash;long relegated to their own plots and often hidden from viewmdash;can become beautiful and practical additions to the ornamental landscape.
