In this BBG monograph, garden designer Colston Burrell reveals methods for transforming your small city plot baking in sunlight into a stunning garden bed using perennials. These BBG guides are an inexpensive and safe way to begin learning about gardening in urban and suburban areas, and perhaps because the source is located in a large metropolitan area (New York). Furthermore, most if not all of the plant material (he does include a list of shrubs for sunny dry plances) listed can be found in city nurseries and garden shops, and most if not all will not disappoint the new gardener. Although Burrell is a garden designer and plantsman now residing in Charlottesville VA ("cold" Zone 7), he has lived all over the US and his monograph includes good ideas for every region. In fact, you may be surprised at just how much information he has crammed into THE SUNNY BORDER. If you are grappling with growing things in shade, the BGG monograph by Burrell and Hardiman (INTIMATE GARDENS) or George Shenk's book on Growing plants in shade may prove more useful.
