If you are planning on doing anything with plants, you need this book. It is the most informative and easy to read gardening book on the market.

I think this is a great book. Lots of good information and ideas which we are always looking for. We live in Thousand Oaks, CA, and our summers get quite hot. I saw a drought resistant plant that I thought was lovely at the nursery several months ago but did not want to pay the price. I had forgotten to write down the name of the plant When I went back, it was of course gone. I was hoping I would find it in this book but no luck. We are very satisfied with the book and definitely glad we purchased it.

I was dissapointed in this book. It has some nice pictures, but not very much descriptive text about ideas for landscaping and how to go about it.
