5 out of 5 stars One hefty book!   March 24, 2007
 8 out of 9 found this review helpful

Pair this book with The American Horticultural Society A-Z Encyclopedia of Garden Plants and you will have the most comprehensive gardening guides you will ever need! The reviews suggested buying the books together and I'm glad I took the advice.
The books are HUGE! I wasn't prepared for the sheer weight of them but they are beautiful as well as informative.



5 out of 5 stars Great gift for the person who has everythhing and loves flowers!   March 22, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

This book has great pictures and covers any type of flower you can dream up in it's 700 or so pages. The book is broken up into sections (i.e. Shrubs, tulips, etc.). A great value here too, it costs $60 in any other book store. The book also tells you what seasons each type of flower grows in.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect garden lover's reference book   January 13, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

This is a killer book. You can look up characteristics of a specific plant or research what to plant for a particular area. I use this book constantly, and also just sit down to look through it for fun. Everything has a picture, which I think really sets this book apart. It's big and heavy, but actually makes a great "coffee table book."


3 out of 5 stars Ok book   November 23, 2006

When I looked at the book online I thought that it would include the actuall common used name, but instead it uses it latin name, which not everyone knows. It does however have an extensive plant guide which is useful.


5 out of 5 stars A Gardener's Must-have   July 4, 2006

If you just want to indulge yourself in fabulous photos of every flowering plant imaginable, this book is for you. If you have problem garden spots, this book has special sections to take the guesswork out of planting. If your creativity needs a little nudge in designing a particular type of garden, again, this book contains marvelous options and suggestions, all zone-specific. It's an absolute must for gardeners and beauty-lovers alike!
