Presenting a new way to think about gardening, the American Horticultural Society's SmartGarden program teaches gardeners how to assess their own needs, recognize the possibilities of a location, and then create a garden that is in tune with the environment. A coding system, assigned to each plant, uses hardiness and heat zones, sun/shade, water needs, and plant size to help determine the perfect plants for any site.
