Abstract: |
A racing wildfire shows no mercy to whomever or whatever is in its path, and it respects no neighborhood economic boundaries as it performs its wicked dance of death. Plants in the way will literally explode. But landscape managers in at-risk regions can extinguish some of the likelihood of damage by using "firescaping" the term applied to landscape designs that make use of fire-retardant plants, prudent pruning and placement. |
