[MPWG] Florida Botany book(s) ?

[Jewell, Susan]

Marguerite,
You should check this site -- books by Roger Hammer, a south Florida
botanist (I know him, and he does great work).

Here is a book I have:

Seashore Plants of South Florida and the Carribean
David W. Nellis
Nature, Gardening, Reference

http://new.pineapplepress.com/ad.asp?isbn=1-56164-056-5

from website:

"This comprehensive guide to identification and propagation of ninety-four
seashore plants is meant both for naturalists and gardeners. For
naturalists or anyone who wants to learn more about seashore ecology, this
book provides the means of identifying plants along these tropical coasts.
Since the plants in this book have all evolved to get by in harsh
conditions with little fresh water, the gardener will find a cornucopia of
ideas for the new trend to use low-water/low-maintenace plants in
landscaping. They may need a little water and care until they get started,
but then they will grow and remain vigorous with minimal care. Using this
book, the landscaper or homeowner can select hardy salt-tolerant plants
which will thrive on the salty shoreline and produce an attractive
environment. "
