Short on Feng Shui but long on Entertainment

While this book was very short on useful feng shui information from a FS consultant's point of view, it was extremely entertaining in other ways. I really enjoyed the symbolism of the different plants in Chinese culture, the aromatherapy-as-applied-to-gardens section, and the useful listing of Oriental plant materials, their history, and cultivation data. No photos, but, hey, you can't have everything. Forget the Feng Shui part, it's still a great book on Chinese garden lore.
