Harold Songdahl and Coralee Leon, just released by the Pineapple Press, is full of hands-on practi- cal advice and information for people who garden in southern Florida's unique conditions. "Nowhere else in the country can you find our combination of soils, atmospheric conditions, and high overnight temperatures," says Songdahl, a Miami native and one of the area's most respected WEDGE\ horticulturists. "As a result, a lot of information in most gar- of dening books, even for those written for the whole of Florida, just doesn't apply here." That's why "The Art of South Florida Gardening" is bound to become an essential resource for gardeners from Key West to Lake Okeechobee to Tampa Bay, says Songdahl.
