    Are you confused by the plant catalogs? Looking for something strange, or just hard to find?. Wondering what to plant, or just what to do with it? This will probably tell you. Where the plant came from, where the information came from, and how it is used. Lists more cultivars then I ever heard of. (86)winter harvest apples (37)black walnut Also Common name, Latin name, and Suppliers.
    It was published in 1998, so the information is not current.
    This is likely to be more of a problem with catalogs, than plants.

    Very comprehensive reference book and good quick tool to look up plants. Tends to be lacking in some of the newer cultivars and newer nurseries. New edition may be called for. If the information were put into an ebook than would not need the very bulky book.

    We had been considering buying this for a long time and when we finally did, it was time to be using it. We had been familiar already with the material it contains. As a source book for seeds and plants it is known to be excellent information ...a valuable reference book.
    SO, we were VERY disappointed when we opened to book and noticed a faulty binding, with very little use, pages were beginning to come loose.

    Bought it used (as all are) being an out of print book, A little beaten up but still a great resource. I wish there were a PDF available so I think I might make one for myself.

    This book would be better implemented in WIKI form online. As a sourcebook on where to find various cultivars, it quickly becomes dated. Also a WIKI would allow addition of much more information on how to use, photos, etc. Info on each plant is light in this book form.
