Bringing Nature Home with Doug Tallamy | Accent on Natural Landscaping

Doug Tallamy was featured in a recent podcast from Joe Lamp’l as joegardener – Growing a Greener World. “When it comes to bringing nature home, no one understands the critical relationships between native plants and the creatures that depend on them better than Doug Tallamy, Ph.D.” — Joe Lamp’l

Doug tells me he’s working on a new book, and it will include all of his recent research. Perhaps some of these photos he’s shared with me will be in it.
