For nine years this book has been my "bible" in my job as biller for a plant broker in Southern California. Although my education included two years of Latin (it helped me get the job!) I still need help in the proper spelling of plant names/species/varieties, since my boss is a great horticulturist but a very poor speller. This book is now dog-eared and falling apart, but I can't work without it. Although it was published many years ago and doesn't have the newest varieties, it still has many that the later books don't have, in a concise and readable format. I recommend it highly!
