Summary: Short review
Review: I am an avid gardener, although I am an amateur at it. I like detail, but not the kind that requires brain surgery for you to figure out what the authors are trying to say. This book is very easy to read, but chock full of interesting "street savvy" information, along with formal knowledge about garden. This book has loads of detail, but it is written extremely well -- very down-to-earth and informal -- and the information doesn't overwhelm you all at once. You can jump in, look up whatever you need in the index and then jump out without being overwhelmed. On the other hand, if you want to find out every cotton picking thing about something, this is also a way to obtain in-depth information.

Summary: This book is a must have for the beginner and the pro!
Review: This book has been a life saver for planning and planting a successful beautiful garden. The fundamentals (zones, light requirements, etc.) are well-explained. I was dissatisfied with the plans a landscaper drew up and ended up doing it myself with the help of this book. Couldn't have done it without this book! Highly recommended!

Summary: This book is a must have for the beginner and the pro!
Review: This is the best gardening book in print. It covers trees, shrubs, annuals, perennials, house plants. It is loaded with how-tos. It is by my side from January (planning stage) to the fall. Unbelievably helpful for any stage gardener.
