5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and very thorough coverage of grafting., May 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Grafter's Handbook (Paperback)

Aimed at the serious amateur or professional. Covers a broad range of grafting techniques and issues. As a person who taught myself grafting by reading books, I found this book to contain a lot of useful information and be interesting to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars a propagator bible, March 16, 2002

joe sierra (MN) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Grafter's Handbook (Paperback)

An excellent text, written with passages about the width of some garden rows wide enough for work horses. Tt is written for the self reliant gardener, with recipes for grafting wax, and descriptions of tools used in grafting. Only one short fall, it is written for seasons and weather in england, and has limited information on specific plants. A book that always will be close at hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truth in Advertising, June 2, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Grafter's Handbook (Paperback)

Just what a beginner would need to start in the esoteric field of grafting. Short on specific advice for types of trees, which would take a much longer work

This book is a little more advanced than what would be required for most novice gardeners who only want to graft a few trees. Read more

No rating because I did not receive what I thought I'd ordered. What I received was the 1967 version with the green cover; not the latest edition of this book. Read more

Fast shipping! The book is easy to read and seems to cover everything needed for me to graft.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for gardeners!
Hobby gardeners: if you intend to do a lot of tree-plants-shrubs purchases for your garden, then consider buying this book; it's great for what the title says!
