Limited land--or even no land space at all--needn't be reason to deprive plant lovers of their gardens. Heitz shows how lavish gardens can be created on a balcony, patio or porch with the help of urns, tubs and flower boxes. She gives detailed directions for year-round care of all kinds of plants. 350 full-color photographs and 120 color drawings.

5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best on container gardening,
By A Customer
This review is from: Container Plants (Hardcover)
Having been a container gardener for more than 15 years, I've read many books. This one is a gem. The color photography is outstanding. Lots of visual suggestions -- small and large -- for plant combinations for each season of the gardening year. Good instructions on plant care, including organic solutions for those interested in non-toxic approaches to pest and disease management. The section on individual plants is superb. I highly recommend this book.

Great resource for gardeners with small spaces!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Container Plants (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book that I use constantly as a resource. Not only did it offer valuable tips about plant care and different appropriate plants for containers, it also had nice examples of container gardens for all seasons. I find the plant index in the back the most helpful. Recommended for beginners and those with apartment balconies or patios!

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Book!,
This review is from: Container Plants (Hardcover)
This is absolutely the best book on container plants. There are so many plants that I would never think of planting in a pot, but Heitz will try anything. This book has been the greatest influence on my container garden (which you can see in Fine Gardening Magazine March/April 2000). Get this book if you are serious about container gardening.
