Bring it Back

Perennial Gardening (American Garden Guides) is one of my favorite garden books. It is concise, accurate, extremely well illustrated,and does not confuse the reader with excessive information. I am a horticulturalist and the Head Grower for a 60 acre wholesale container nursery. I have been responsible for growing perennials for over 20years. Often I am ask to speak to retail customers or the general public. This is my most highly recommended book for people first starting to develop a perennial Garden.

Well organized and easy identification of plants.

I am on my 6th week with this book from my local library. I can't get enough. I have read many books and magazines and this book is well organized and has great clearity and easy access for plant descriptions. I highly recommend getting a copy from your library and checking it out for yourself. I hope these reviews will help bring this book back around for the gardeners who want a good book to add to their collection.

Get this book back in print...

Actually, I have't read this book because book stores don't carry it. It is out of stock and nobody can get it. I know it's a good book, though, because it is part of The American Gardening Guide series. I have the Annual Gardening book in this series and it is very well organized and informative. I would dearly love a copy of Perennial Gardening. I hope a book distributor will read this, and due to the fact that it just so happens they still have a copy in stock, they contact me at my email address below.
