The information for each plant is concise and extremely useful.
A bloom season chart within is one of the best charts I've seen in a flower book.
I like that the ultimate height and width of each plant is listed in a small diagram for each flower; this information is consistently placed throughout the listings and is easy to find quickly.

Easiest Flowers to Grow has quickly become one of my favorite gardening books, one I return to often. It's a book I can recommend without reservation

I am a Master Gardener. I found this book at WalMart a few years ago, and I keep recommending it to newbie flower gardeners.

I saw this book at the library and wanted my own copy. I was thrilled with the quality of the book that I received as a 'used' book. It was shipped fast and efficiently. Thank you so much. Will look to do business with this seller in the future.
