5.0 out of 5 stars A must for people who love children and/or plants, December 13, 2000
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Plants for Play: A Plant Selection Guide for Children's Outdoor Environments (Paperback)
In one easy reference volume, you can find what plants to plant for what purpose, (shade, climbing, play materials, etc.) and also a very handy section on what not to plant (toxic!). Very helpful for parents and for anyone responsible for outdoor play environments.

1.0 out of 5 stars Just a list of plants..., June 28, 2008
By 
RM (Tempe AZ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Plants for Play: A Plant Selection Guide for Children's Outdoor Environments (Paperback)
This book is nothing more than a list of plants that are suggested for children's play areas. I expected more for my $17. It's more like a reference list that should be posted on the author's web site. I'm returning it.
