    4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, useful info. Worth the wait to get it.
    Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 1998
    Excellent source of info on seed germination
    applicable to the novice and expert.
    What I liked best were the succinct
    pretreatment and planting directions for a
    wide variety of trees and shrubs.
    I also found the information on collecting
    and storing seeds immediately useful and
    valuable.

    I was really hoping for a more user friendly guide with photos and easy to follow instructions. This book may be of value of you already have advanced knowledge of botany, but really it is not going to get a neophyte out collecting seeds
