Perennial Gardens for Texas by Julie Ryan,

Perennial Gardens for Texas by Julie Ryan,
A perennial garden is an ever-changing source of delight. Each season brings new colors and textures in flowers and foliage. As the years go by, perennial plantings mature and interweave into forms more beautiful and surprising than a season's growth of annuals can ever give. Best of all, a perennial garden can grow almost anywhere with plants suited to local soils, temperatures, and rainfall. This book is a complete guide to perennial gardening in Texas and similar regions of eastern New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and the Carolinas. In Part One, Julie Ryan offers a historical sketch of cottage gardens and perennial borders, with a sampler of some of their modern variations. In Part Two, she defines the major ecological regions of Texas and, with words and color photographs, takes you on a tour of lovely public and private gardens in each region. You'll find all the "how to" information for creating your own garden in Part Three. Ms. Ryan describes and pictures over 300 flowering perennials, bulbs, foliage plants, and old roses suitable for Texas gardens, with lists of companion annuals, vines, shrubs, and small trees. Accompanying charts provide quick reference to each plant's preferred regions and cultivation requirements. In addition, Ms. Ryan discusses how to design a garden and select plants, prepare the beds, and deal with garden pests. She concludes with substantial lists of resources, including mail-order suppliers of perennials, bulbs, and old roses.

Maltese cross (flower) - The Maltese Cross or Jerusalem Cross (Lychnis chalcedonica, sometimes also Silene chalcedonica), also known as the Dusky Salmon, is a herbaceous perennial native to Russia, noted for its clusters of dense, scarlet-colored flowers. The flowers are great for attracting hummingbirds.

Catananche caerulea - The showy violet-blue perennial flower of the aster family Catananche caerulea bears the common names Cupid's dart, blue cupidone, and cerverina. It is a garden flower and is often used in dried flower arrangements.

Wandflower - The Wandflower (Sparaxis tricolor), also known as the Harlequin flower or Sparaxis, is a perennial bulb that grows in well-drained sunny soil. It gained its name from its extremely colorful flowers which are bi or tri-coloured with a golden centre and a small ring of brown surrounded by another colour.

Heartsease - The Heartsease (Viola tricolor) is a common European wild flower, growing as an annual or short-lived perennial. It has been introduced into North America, where it has spread widely, and is known as the Johnny Jump Up (though this name is also applied to similar native species such as the Yellow Pansy).
