Paperback. Wildfires are burning over longer seasons and more intensely than ever before, and everyone living in a wildland-urban interface or wildland-adjacent area should take precautionary steps to mitigate the risk of property damage. In Firescaping Your Home, Adrienne Edwards and Rachel Schleiger provide expert guidance and specific recommendations on how to harden your home against fire and create defensible space that is lush and attractive. They also provide in-depth native plant lists of hundreds of species that have evolved to coexist with fire in the West, and show how and why including these on your property sustains wildlife and can actually be your most powerful defence. This hardworking, actionable guide is a must-have for homeowners looking to fight the risks of wildfire spreading to their homes and property. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
