A classic every gardener must have With more than 600 blossoming shrubs and tree species, planting and maintenance instructions, and troubleshooting tips to prevent rust, rot mildew and other... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a good book to have on hand for planning a new garden. The text is well-written, informative and witty. It is not the comprehensive equal of Dirr's 'Manual of Woody Landscape Plants,'but it has color pictures and good information for gardens in zone 6 and lower. I believe the author's garden was in zone 6 or 5(?) and the book covers everything she sucessfully grew there. So, if she grew it, it's here. If she didn't grow it, check Dirr's book.
