5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need to know about Palms., March 2, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Betrocks Guide to Landscape Palms (Hardcover)

I am a reader who whants to know about Palms, but not every scientific thing about them. So I found out about the book Betrock's Guide to Landscape Palms. Every page is packed with information and clear photographs. The book tells how fast they grows, human hazards, comments,and even tells the zones they grow in; and much, much, more! All this for a price of $30.00!!!!! I recommend this book to every Palm lover!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good subject coverage on a huge topic!, November 2, 1996

By A Customer

This review is from: Betrocks Guide to Landscape Palms (Hardcover)

As a novice palm enthusiast I am always searching for information on palms. The subject is usually too wide ranging or to technical but this book, Betrock's Guide to Landscape palms, has very complete and accurate information about landscape palms. It has good coverage of the palms which can be grown in the tropical and sub-tropical areas of the United States; ie. Southern California and Florida. Very well laid out with good color photos
