A new edition of The Prairie Garden series has arrived just in time for Christmas. Titled Shaping Spaces, the 2026 book offers fresh ideas for transforming outdoor areas into unique and inviting retreats. Gardeners in the Upper Midwest will find it both practical and inspiring. The 2026 release marks the latest in a long-running tradition.

This year's Shaping Spaces edition builds on nearly a century of horticultural expertise. It arrives as a timely gift option for gardeners looking to reimagine their outdoor areas. The book's practical focus and regional relevance ensure it remains a valuable tool for prairie gardeners.
