Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maryland, situated in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, presents gardening devotees with distinctive challenges and prospects due to its varied climate and topography. Geographically diverse regions of Maryland, ranging from the Eastern Shore to the rolling hills of the Piedmont, permit an extensive variety of gardening techniques and plant selections. The region encounters four discrete seasons, characterized by frigid winters and sweltering, humid summers, which create an optimal habitat for an abundance of plant life. The thriving gardening landscape in Maryland offers something for everyone, from novices to seasoned green thumbs. A comprehensive knowledge of the indigenous plant species, local climate, and soil conditions is imperative for achieving horticulture success in Maryland. The USDA hardiness zones of the state, which span from 5b to 8a, provide favorable conditions for the cultivation of an extensive assortment of plants, such as annuals, perennials, vegetables, and fruits. One of the many advantages of gardening in Maryland is the year-round availability of a diverse selection of flora. Flowering bulbs, including daffodils and tulips, add a splash of color to the spring, whereas an abundance of vegetables, including tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers, fill the summer. The red, orange, and gold shades of autumn foliage that cover the ground provide an exquisite backdrop for late-season flowers. Nonetheless, horticulture in Maryland is not devoid of obstacles. The state experiences erratic weather patterns, which may result in intermittent frosts during the early autumn and spring seasons, which may endanger delicate plants. In addition, improperly managed pests including rabbits, deer, and various insects can inflict havoc on gardens. Maryland gardeners utilize a range of methods to surmount these obstacles, such as companion planting, mulching, and integrated pest management approaches. In order to support local ecosystems, many also adopt sustainable gardening practices, including rainwater collection, decomposition, and planting native species. Maryland presents an extensive variety of gardening experiences, encompassing small urban gardens, expansive suburban landscapes, and rural farms where one tends to produce. The Old Line State is an oasis for individuals who aspire to foster aesthetic appeal, environmental consciousness, and a sense of belonging to the natural world via gardening, owing to its varied climate, fertile soil, and enthusiastic horticultural community.
