Description

Pamela Crawford, bestselling Florida garden author and researcher, has a new book that will show you how to landscape to minimize wind damage, both to your garden and your home. She has researched and analyzed thousands of pages of data and spoken to hundreds of experts - from Max Mayfield, the director of the National Hurricane Center, 37 different county extension directors, four botanical gardens, 12 researchers from University of Florida, and many emergency managers - and found answers that every homeowner in Florida needs to know. The results of her research are astounding, and can make your experiences in the next hurricane go from catastrophic to a mere inconvenience.
