The New Central Texas Gardener

Rating:
Summary: They Forgot Japanese Maples!
Review: This is a nice little book with some interesting information. It even has 8 pages of color photos (but what is the theme?). It's a worthwhile addition to a collection of books on the subject of Texas Gardening. If you are looking for one book as a general reference, however, I believe you are better off with Neil Sperry's "Texas Gardening". I can't believe there's not a word about the venerable Japanese Maple, my favorite specimen tree for (most of) Texas!
