Attention Plant Addicts!,
By "lodygal" (Miami, Fl. United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Where on Earth: A Guide to Specialty Nurseries and Other Resources for California Gardeners (Paperback)
As a horticulturist who is always looking for the unusual and hard to find plant, I found this guide to be an treasure. The authors divide the nurseries down by geographical sections, and then break each nursery down into whether they are wholesale/retail/mail order, plant specialties, brief history/description, how to get there and general information. Also covered are Horticultural Attractions and a list of plant societies. If your a plant nut like me, make sure you add this book to your collection.
