This is the best book I've seen for learning about plants that do well in the San Francisco Bay area. Beautiful pictures of the individual plants as well as in a landscaped setting.

This book is amazing. Great location specific plant information, high quality gorgeous photos but most fascinating - it was produced by East Bay Municipal Utility District, our local water agency. BRILLIANT. This is a great example of a public agency thinking creatively about water conservation.

Excellent resource for gardeners in Mediterranean climates. Color photos of plants, and lists of plants suitable for specific areas such as "plants for dryish shade."
