Carnivorous Plants

Rating:
Summary: More show than substance
Review: Although there are better books detailing the cultivation of carnivorous plants, I don't think any can match the amazing and beautiful color photographs of the plants in this volume. The photos alone are worth the cover price. For content I give it 3 stars, but for photos it gets 5, so I guess I'll have to give the book a 4 rating as an average!

Review: Nice pictures but little information about the plants and all their varieties. I rate it a 2 for content.

A far, far superior book is THE SAVAGE GARDEN by Peter D'Amato.

Review: Nice pictures but not much discussion of the plants. Teaches you little about them.

Summary: Worth Buying For The Color Photos Alone
Review: This book gives general cultivating instructions for carnivorous plants, and is a good book for beginners. The book is worth collecting for the incredible color photos alone.
