PlantSwatch™ is just like a paint swatch but designed for choosing garden plants instead of paint. This nifty little “tool” is basically an easy-to-carry index that’s arranged by color and hardiness zones. It features over 230 plant varieties, each with its own growing conditions. From shrubs and trees to grasses and flowering plants, you’ll find everything you need right at your fingertips. The product was created to provide the “average” gardener, as well as newbies, with a more practical solution to selecting plants for the garden.
And it’s fun!
