Summary: Herbaceous Ornamental Plants
Comment: Enormous book, excellent coverage. Black and white, limited color prints in special section. For each species complete data are given on usage, growth habit, season of bloom, culture, propagation, and diseases. Includes notes on many cultivars, although a bit dated now (1994 revision). This is where I go first for information on perennials. An example of a book which goes for information rather than looking pretty. Used as a textbook in college horticulture courses.
Rating: 5
Summary: The Best
Comment: As an employee of a prominent local retailer of perennials, I find this book essential in identifying the plants our customers are seeking. A few descriptive words or a common name and we are well on our way to knowing what the plant was that "Aunt Millie" had in her garden. A gem of a book.
Rating: 5
Summary: excellent, concise descriptiions of annuals and perennials
Comment: I have used this book as a textbook in Floriculture classes for the last 2 years and find that the brief, concise descriptions are more than sufficient for classroom instruction,as well as field use. Could have better (and more) color pictures, but I still give it 5 stars.
