Bringing Nature Home: How You Can Sustain Wildlife with Native Plants (Revised): How You Can Sustain Wildlife with Native Plants

By Douglas W Tallamy

$21.99
This "miracle" of a guide book shows readers how to maintain harmony within their environment (Margaret Renkl, The Washington Post).

In his groundbreaking book Bringing Nature Home, Douglas W. Tallamy reveals the unbreakable link between native plant species and native wildlife--native insects cannot, or will not, eat alien plants. When native plants disappear, the insects disappear, impoverishing the food source for birds and other animals. As development and habitat destruction accelerate, there are increasing pressures on wildlife populations.

Luckily, there is an important and simple step we can all take to help reverse this alarming trend: everyone with access to a patch of earth can make a significant contribution toward sustaining biodiversity by simply choosing native plants. By acting on Douglas Tallamy's practical and achievable recommendations, we can all make a difference.
