Rock Gardening by Joseph Tychonievich
AHS Book Award winner
Rock gardening --the art of growing alpines and other miniature plants in the company of rocks in order to recreate the look of a rugged mountaintop--has been surging in popularity. Time and space constraints, chronic drought in the American West, and a trend toward architectural plants are just a few of the reasons for the increased interest. Rock Gardening brings this traditional style to a new generation of gardeners. It includes a survey of gorgeous rock gardens from around the world, the techniques and methods specific to creating and maintaining a rock garden, and profiles of the top 50 rock garden plants.
Joseph Tychonievich was the nursery manager at Arrowhead Alpines, a top rock garden nursery in Fowlerville, Michigan, and studied horticulture, plant breeding, and genetics at Ohio State University. In addition, he serves as the editor of Rock Garden Quarterly. He was named one of six young horticulturists shaping the way America plants by Organic Gardening Magazine.
