“Careful landscaping can be much more effective at saving energy than many of the other efforts we make each day, like turning off lights and turning down the heat. Having the right plantings outside your home will not only save you money, it will also help you live more comfortably in an aesthetically pleasing environment. That’s the essence of the message embedded in every page of Energy-Wise Landscape Design.”
