More About the Author

Maureen is a child of California who entered horticulture at age 19. Thirty years later she has risen to success in garden media. She's written 18 books on plants, gardens and design. She's also a columnist syndicated by United Media and writes for various magazines. Since moving to Palm Springs in 2002, she's fallen in love with cacti and succulents as well as other desert plants that are the salvation of water stressed communities. That's why she wrote Palm Springs Style Gardening, so that everyone may discover what has so enchanted her in this land of little rain.

Mo's latest releases are the first two books of the fiction series featuring main character, Allison Keppler family investigator. Walls and Altamont are exciting forays into little known realms of California, on sale as eBook novels at the Kindle Store.

Maureen also writes autobiographical titles featuring two upcoming books:
10 Years in Limbo - An Odyssey of Love and Chronic Pain
Jumping the Fence - A Legacy of Race and Family Secrets In Antebellum New Orleans Through the Era of Jim Crow.

When Mo is not in the garden or at the computer, she's on her quarter horse exploring the back country of Southern California.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-have Northern California Gardening Book, December 9, 2002
By 
Angela Pratt (Sacramento, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Guide to Northern California Gardening (Hardcover)
Author Maureen Gilmer gives an excellent overview of the northern California plant palette. Not only does she tell you what you can grow, but also gives hints for buying, planting and caring for northern California plants. The Month by Month Gardening Guide is especially helpful since it covers lawn care, trees, shrubs, vines, groundcovers, perennials, annuals, roses, irrigation systems, tools and general tasks. This book is a wonderful complement to the Sunset Western Garden Book.

This review is from: The Complete Guide to Northern California Gardening (Hardcover)
This guide is very user friendly with helpful information. I was mostly interested in drought resistant plants and while there was no such chapter there is a listing which helped me to make my selections.
