Groundcover Revolution

Tired of spending your weekends mowing, trimming and edging the lawn? You are not alone in your desire to replace it with something prettier, more diverse, lower maintenance, welcoming to pollinators and generally good for the environment.

This book shows you how to replace grass with ground-covering plants that reduce the use of water and chemicals that also boost biodiversity and act as carbon sinks. Demonstrating how to confront challenges like tree roots, compacted soils, poor drainage and dense shade, the handy guide presents 40 in-depth groundcover profiles, including a useful chart for quick reference.
