Packed with vivid illustrations and clearly organized information, this book can equip anybody to confidently cultivate the ultimate wildlife garden. After a brief introduction, the book journeys through different species you might desire to attract to your garden and the specific flowers and plants that will help you do that. For each animal, insect, or plant discussed, a handy list provides you with the key information needed—for example, hardiness, size, color (and more) for plants; wingspan, markings, sounds (and more) for birds; and similar details for butterflies and bees. The book also briefly addresses other wildlife you might want to attract. At the end, a “Plan Your Garden” section walks you through how to plant a garden specific to the creatures you want to attract. Even if you’re not in a place to create a wildlife habitat now, there is still so much to learn from this book! A FAQ section at the end addresses helpful questions and an index rounds out this rich resource.
