5.0 out of 5 stars Witty, opinionated, eye-opening, - as well as gorgeous!, December 23, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Discovering Annuals (Hardcover)
Graham Rice is one of my very favorite garden writers, always personal, funny and extraordinarily knowledgable, and in this new, gorgeously illustrated book about annual plants, he absolutely shines.

Rice makes me agree that I too hate dumpy boring marigolds, for instance, and then hands me wonderful information about using the old-fashioned striped Victorian heirloom types instead. Banished also is the lump-style plantings that usually go hand in hand with annual flowers; Rice shows me how to combine looser, more lovely kinds so that they intermingle and entwine intimately. (His prose is almost purple on this point, and I love it!)

This is a great book, enriching the mind, heart and eye. It will make you look at gardening in an entirely new light.
