FROM THE BOTANY BOOKSHELF: 3 MEXICO STYLE GARDEN BOOKS

What kind of garden style fits your region and your vision?  Mine is a Fusion Garden Style (some would say ConFusion Garden style!).   Here are three books from my garden library that beautifully illustrate Mexican Garden Styles. My tropical garden most closely fits the gardens in the Vera Cruz and Tampico areas. My favorite is Las Pozas in Xilitla...a jungle garden par excellence.
                   "In a Mexican Garden"  photos by Melba Levick  2005   200photographs/ 176pages
                     "Paraiso Mexicano" by Marie Pierre Colle  2002    280photographs/240pages
                         "Gardens of Mexico" by Antonio Haas 1993  216photographs/223 pages
Thanks for stopping by Tropical Texana.  Visit Cindy at My Corner of Katy for another 3 for Thursday. And please feel free to make up your own. It's a fun way to add to your garden blog.
And.....if you have any other books on this topic, please leave a comment. I'm always on the lookout for gardening books.
