5.0 out of 5 stars The Complete Garden Guide, April 2, 2001

Babetta Lynde (Westminster, VT USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Garden Guide: A Comprehensive Reference for All Your Garden Needs (Hardcover)
I hate using an overly-used quote, but if you only get one book on gardening, then make it this one! It's great for beginners as well as intermediates. It's filled with wonderful tips on designing and maintaining lawns and gardens, along with how to deal with pests and diseases. The writing of the book is easy to understand, and there are hundreds of pictures explaining layouts and designs. This book is ideal for anyone who wishes to grow vegetables, flowers, trees, and shrubs. The largest section breaks down the plants by annuals, perennials, wildflowers, etc with the most complete explaination of plants, where to grown them, and how to grow them that I have ever seen. Just about every page has a gorgeous photo or diagram on it. My one and only complaint is that some of the tiny flowers on bushes or shrubs would have been easier to see if their picture had been printed in a larger size, but I consider this so minor compared to the almost 1000 pages of information. I highly recommend this book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for the home, March 24, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Garden Guide: A Comprehensive Reference for All Your Garden Needs (Hardcover)
You have to have this book, it answers nearly every question I had about gardening. Including use of weed killers, which plants do well in the shade, great photos, even indoor plants and stuff to grow for your kitchen and the recipes to go with them. Its is expensive, but well worth it.
