Summary: The IDEAL Garden Book for S. Florida
Comment: Easy to read, easy to use book. Excellent photos of plants with critical information (light, water, pests, etc.) clearly listed in side margins. Especially liked the author's editorial comments, not just the usual dry descriptions. Also enjoyed lists and photos of plants to use together. EXCELLENT reference section with thumbnail photos for plants to use in sun, partial sun, partial shade, full shade, classed by size (height). I own quite a few gardening books and this one is the crown jewel!

Summary: Wish I found this sooner.....
Comment: As a new South Florida gardener, I wasted money on three other books before I found this one. High glossy pictures on every page alone makes it worth the money. This author has tested all kinds of plants and isolated the best and easiest for this area -- as well as talking about care, possible problems, and suggested companions for each plant. I'm glad I found this book before I started re-landscaping my yard - I expect it saves me a lot of money. IF you live in South Florida - it's worth every penny!
Footnote Jan 2003: It has been 6 months since I used this book to re-landscape, and everything is now filling in beautifully.
Everything I chose is thriving. And the yard looks great.

Summary: Excellent text, but photos not so good
Comment: The writing in this book was very good, and I especially liked that the author had personally tested the plants for this difficult climate. But, unfortunately many of the photos were blurry and unprofessional looking. Since the photos are always a favorite part for me of any plant book this did detract from an otherwise very good book. I will look for her next book Best Color Garden for Florida in a bookstore before buying so I can see that the photos don't have the same poor quality.
