This review is from: Best Garden Plants for Kansas (Best Garden Plants For...) (Paperback)
This book is great. It explains all the plants and flowers of Kansas and makes it so much fun to read. I do not have a green thumb, but I probably could grow some things with the help of this book. I recommend it strongly and have done so to other people.
