Book: Moss Gardening: Including Lichens, Liverworts, And Other Miniatures Mosses tell an ancient success story of longevity as well as dispersion; they appear in fossils 400 million years old and total 15,000 species from the Arctic to the Antarctic. Landscaping expert George Schenk shows how to propagate and cultivate various mosses for rock gardens, as a lawn substitute, and for use in miniature gardens or containers. 97 color photos.
A delightful book that encourages gardeners to pay closer attention to the subtle beauty of miniature landscapes and introduces one of the glories of Japanese gardens into American designs. The author writes entertainingly of mosses on rocks and walls, in containers, and as a lush ground cover, and he presents a gallery of his favorite moss species.
