Fruits and Berries for the Home Garden

This book is just what I needed to help plan my new 'edible' landscape. It gives alot of good information in an easy to read formate. The author even remembered to list plants that will do best in hot zones as well as the cold zones. I have found that many books only tell you how cold tolerant a plant is, forgetting that in some areas (the deep South), heat tolerance is an important factor too. All in all, a very nice book and well worth the price..

So Good, I Bought One For My Brother!

This book is tops for the orchardist and fruit grower. So maybe orchardist isn't a word . . . it should be! And this book should be on your shelf (or in your lap)! Thanks for the speedy and efficient transaction. Five star!

Good Book for Home Berry Growers

Excellent book for those who want to grow their own berries and fruits in their own back yard!

Great book

I bought a few books on this subject when starting my little orchard. So far, this one is the best. The author explains things well, and covers a lot of territory. I'm sure I'll keep this book as a reference source.

Fruits and Berries

I am very happy with this book. It you are looking for information about any berry or fruit you will find it in this book. If there is something special you are looking for, it will have it. So far anything I have wanted to know I have been able to find it in this book. It will tell you anything about blueberries from planting to prunning. As far as fruit trees I have found all the info I want on apples, peaches, plums, grapes and much more. I would recamend this book to any one who is just beginning to plant berries and fruit to one who already has been doing it for a while. Any one who buys this book will not be disapointed.
