4.0 out of 5 stars A Rejoinder
As an encyclopedia of plants, you wouldn't buy this book. As a source of ideas for garden spaces of all sizes and shapes both indoors and out, it's a book with which to spend many happy hours.

2.0 out of 5 stars DIssapointing as a reference, good as a coffee table book
This book was a big dissapointment to me. I was looking for a comprehensive reference on types of plants and how to grow them. What I got was hundreds of photos of elaborate gardens that I'll never have the time nor space to grow.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Gift for Mom, November 30, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Gardener (Hardcover)
I saw this book at the university store and I paged thru expecting an encyclopedia but to my suprize there were excellent photos and many ideas for gardens. I purchased the book for my gardening expert(my MOM) for Christmas. I am sure she will enjoy the new ideas. This is a good book for those people who have space indoors or outdoors to make arrangments and gardens. I recommend this book to those that spend many hours on their plants a week already.
