Plant propagation-Hartmann,
By C. Gates (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Plant Propagation: Principles and Practices (6th Edition) (Hardcover)
A very informative book with many examples of plant species and their specific propagation requirements. Very detailed but also useful for the beginning propagationist. Great chapters on tissue culture.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Good basic information,
By A Customer
This review is from: Plant Propagation: Principles and Practices (6th Edition) (Hardcover)
This book was used by my plant propagation teacher while I was at the university. It explains the basic principles of plant propagation in detail. All the information is back-up by scientific data. Very good for the professional grower or a plant science student; not very appropriate for the common gardener.
