In Bringing Nature Home, Doug Tallamy encourages the use of native plants in gardening. This book asks and answers questions for modern gardeners inclined to good stewardship. How can we adjust our planting palette to be both beautiful and envitonmentally useful? How much more does a local oak species contribute to habitat richness then an out-of-ecological-context exotic tree? What do violets and fritillarybutterflies, or pawpaws and zebra swallowtails have in common? Where might tomorrow's species come from?Abstract: As development and subsequent habitat destruction accelerate, there are increasing pressures on wildlife populations. This title offers a national conversation about the link between healthy localecosystems and human well-being and helps broaden the movement.
