5.0 out of 5 stars Flowergasted! April 17, 2012
By Jake
Format:Paperback
I recently met Barbara at a booth at a local garden show. My friend and I picked up her book. We later spent an enjoyable evening discussing the beautiful container gardens oohing and awing as we got inspiration for our own gardens! This book has something for everyone. It has a great introduction to container gardening and Barbara gives you step by step instructions for potting and caring for each gorgeous creation. Barbara has a great eye for combining colors and textures. I am an experienced gardner and I found many new ideas in this book to try. I have seen Containers personal planted by Barbara and to say that she is " good at what she does " is an understatement I am so glad I picked up this book and you will be too!

While it was very thorough in showing how to create the various containers, the actual design of the container plants were average. I was looking for something more eye catching.
