New in the Store- Florida Books of Importance!

You can turn your Florida yard into a beautiful cornucopia of delicious fruit. This fully illustrated book profiles 80 native and non-native trees, shrubs, and vines ranging from the familiar, such as the strawberry and orange, to the obscure, such as the grumichama and jaboticaba. You can grow many of the world’s best-tasting fruits in Florida’s subtropical environment. Learn how from Charles Boning’s years of experience and expertise. Plants discussed include: Ambarella, Atemoya, Avocado, Bael Fruit, Banana, Barbados Cherry, Canistel, Carambola, Carissa, Chestnut, Cocoplum, Custard Apple, Darling Plum, Fig, Guava, Imbe, Jaboticaba, Jackfruit, Kiwifruit, Kumquat, Loquat, Lychee, Macadamia, Mamey Sapote, Mango, Orange, Papaya, Passion Fruit, Pawpaw, Persimmon, Pineapple, Pitaya, Pomegranate, Tamarind.

This book is the first comprehensive guide to Florida's amazing variety of tree species: from scrub oak on the high central ridges to mangroves stretching along the southern coasts, from mighty live oaks to the delicate and diminutive hawthornes, from bald cypress with their knees poking up from the swamps to the coppery-colored gumbo limbo found in tropical hammocks of the Everglades and Keys, from the sabal palm found all over the state to the rare and endangered yew found only along the banks of the Apalachicola River in northern Florida. The color photos, all taken in Florida, are useful where color is important in identification.

As land is developed in Florida the native flora is removed and usually replaced with non-native vegetation. Wildlife habitat is reduced, water, fertilizer and pesticide usage increases, and the appearance of Florida is altered. But urban and suburban dwellers can reduce the damage being done to our ecosystems by viewing their yards as part of the natural system. This means using native plants and doing it in a way more attuned to natural places.

This small book will help you make a plan that will work for your yard and choose the native plants that will thrive there with minimal care. You will have the joy of creating an aesthetically pleasing, life-supporting, and environmentally sensitive landscape. Methods for a small fruit and vegetable garden are also covered.
