In this eBook, Patten, a veteran low water designer, describes step-by-step strategies to transform high water design situations. Produce gardens, proper zoning, irrigation, native low water lawns, tips for xeriscape design styles, advice on planting California natives and Mediterraneans, as well as how to take advantage of microclimates. These are just some of the topics covered. Special sections on native California Oaks, instructions on how to grow a native meadow, and a month-by-month native bloom cycle list included.
Leslie's background is in horticulture and botany, but she also has naturalist training and worked for over eight years at a museum lab preparing wildlife specimens of museum quality. She has assisted with spotted owl studies, as well as wolf and grizzly bear studies as a citizen scientist. Her knowledge of tracking, wildlife, and native plants of the West greatly enhances her ability to create successful designs and wildlife gardens. Low water gardens has been her specialty in the Bay Area for over twenty years, but she also has designed tropical, English, and Zen gardens. Her expertise is best described as a habitat specialist.
She now splits her time between the wilds of northwest Wyoming and the Bay Area. Her ongoing blog can be seen at www.thehumanfootprint.wordpress.com. Her business website with photos of many jobs can be viewed at www.ecoscapes.net.
