For those who are interested in more efficient, ecologically friendly gardens, or simply curious what the wide world of plants can offer us going into the future. Mastering the Growing Edge is a cutting edge work that broadens our view of garden tools and how easily we and nature can work together to create lush, productive gardens. The main focus is ten plants the author, Luke Simon, has found best represent the functions most garden plants offer including -weed exclusion -on-site mulch and fertilizer -conversion from lawn to garden while keeping an eye for beauty, and edible plant landscaping. While Luke enters the scene from the angle of permaculture, food forests, and perennial gardens which he keeps in mind through the work, this book has application for any gardener from perennial ornamentals to annual vegetables. Those who have read Luke’s earlier work PASSIVE Gardening will find many additions here that continue to show the elegant, practical tools we can discover in healthy ecology.
