Native, Non-Native Hedges, Borders, Hedgerows, Lawns and Carpet Beds captures the balance of major horticultural topics the author aspired to cover through collective publications. Following a visit to a South Carolina arboretum in the 1990s, with educational resources on site, the author was inspired to develop such an arboretum on Prince Edward Island. In doing so, hardiness trials of plant species, hybrids and cultivars from around the world were established. Tours and educational sessions for the disabled and other interested individuals and groups are provided.
The author has since moved forward to perpetually protect the property under a Demonstration Habitat Protection Agreement pursuant to the Wildlife Conservation Act R.S. P.E.I. 1988, Cap. W-4. 1. Following this designation, the property will be donated to a local charitable organization in perpetuity as an educational resource for industry, organizations and public.
The first edition of Native, Non-Native Hedges, Borders, Hedgerows, Lawns and Carpet Beds highlights a collaboration of cultural information and imagery seen across the Island and northern Nova Scotia. Images for each species or hybrids may include examples of form in-leaf, fall colour and winter form.

David Carmichael spent over 29 years working with the Province of Prince Edward Island as a horticulturist. David began his career with the provincial civil service of Prince Edward Island on September 24, 1990, with retail sales at Bunbury Nursery. The nursery was part of the Department of Agriculture and Forestry from the mid-1940s until the nursery closed in 1996. David then moved on to the J. Frank Gaudet Tree Nursery to assist in the production of nursery stock for reforestation. David also delivered a broad-range extension service to industry and the public. Previous employment included work in agricultural and ornamental landscape industries and development of an arboretum to study and test the hardiness of many species, hybrid and cultivars in Prince Edward Island's climate.
