5.0 out of 5 stars
Ashmun's experience shows
This book is deceiving because it's small, but the advice here is very well chosen. It's not for someone who has a lot of experience with Pacific NW gardens already, but it's still very helpful for those growing perennials in our wet climate. It also clearly conveys Ashmun's love of and knowledge about perennials.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointingly little regional information
A better description than the title provides would be "200 Tips for growing flowers (particularly in the Pacific Northwest)" -- the vast majority of these tips are generic flower growing ideas and have no special bearing on this region. The sections on weather and garden health are the only ones that really benefit from a Pacific NW focus. If you are looking...

This review is from: 200 Tips for Growing Flowers in the Pacific Northwest (Paperback)
A better description than the title provides would be "200 Tips for growing flowers (particularly in the Pacific Northwest)" -- the vast majority of these tips are generic flower growing ideas and have no special bearing on this region. The sections on weather and garden health are the only ones that really benefit from a Pacific NW focus. If you are looking for a regional flower-gardening guide this is not it. If you want a list of flower growing hints and ideas, and happen to live in the Northwest, this book might have some value to you, especially if you are looking for a few pointers on planning and design, with suggested plant combinations apparantly suitable for this region.
