Perfect

I received this book as a gift and it is a perfect resource for those of us who admire container gardens but don't quite know how to achieve professional looking results. There is so much valuable information in the book, and even more ideas that I would have never thought of.

Want dramatic results? Then, take this with you to your favorite garden/landscapers. Pass by the "big box" stores on your way. I'm thrilled with my containers and hanging baskets -- and have gotten raves from friends and neighbors.

This book has really good ideas for professionals and amateurs alike. I already knew all of the plants, but it's good to get fresh ideas when you're having a creativity block. Also has some good basics for amateur container gardeners.
