This attractive handbook is a basic guide for beginning gardeners for selecting plants that will do well in the state. Plants are arranged alphabetically in sections of Annuals, Perennials, Trees & Shrubs, Roses, Vines & Groundcovers, Bulbs, Corms & Tubers, Herbs and Ferns & Ornamental Grasses. Each plant profile includes a nice color photo and minimal information on growing conditions, tips and cultivar recommentations. An okay guide for the beginning gardener - if you are looking for in-depth information, you may want to look elsewhere.

Really good resource for North Carolina gardeners. They were right on about the plants in the book that I have first hand knowledge about. These plantings have done well in my garden. So that gives me confidence to try some of the ones they reccomend that I haven't tried yet.

Pam Beck's newspaper column always had great tips for the local gardener. This book does not dissapoint. This handy book is easy to carry for those many trips to the home centers or nurseries. It has good pictures of the plants and the descriptions are concise but very helpful. Every North Carolinian, especially those new to the area, should invest in this little gem.

Excellent basic gardening manual...exactly what you need to start planning your NC garden. Plenty of color pictures and suggestions for how to use certain plants in the garden. If you're a novice gardener or just new to North Carolina, this resource is well worth the money.

This a very easy to understand and very informative tome for casual gardners in North Carolina.

This was a great book for me! It is helping me pick plants that will flourish in my environment. It's user friendly & very informative.

This book is helpful and it aided my brother in deciding which plans to put in his Charlotee garden.

I received this book in the spring and I probably opened it every day during the growing season. It is filled with so much info. on what to plant and how to plant certain flowers, shrubs and grass. Thank you for having this Ohio gardening book available.
