5.0 out of 5 stars
A very informative resource for annuals, biennials & bulbs.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Successful gardening a-z of annuals, biennials, & bulbs (vol. 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
This was the required text book for a herbeceous plant class at the technical college I attend. The book was valuable to the more knowledgable students and exceedingly helpful to the beginning student. I used this book as a frequent reference while studying annuals. As a Master Gardener I have referenced this text for information while volunteering with the Girl Scouts and at an assisted living facility.

This review is from: Successful gardening a-z of annuals, biennials, & bulbs (vol. 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
I bought this book as a companion book to my Sunset Western Garden book. The main reason why I bought it was because of the color photos (Sunset's book only has sketches) and I found I needed to see real photographs of the flowers when planning my gardens. For my purposes, it serves me very well allthough it seems that it contains only the "popular" species as far as flowers go. It also is very short in its descriptions and what type of care the plants need. It does not contain enough information on its own, but as a cross reference, it is great. I find it serves my purposes well for needing to see "real life" pictures of the potential flowers I want to plant.
