Summary: Beginner Gardener
Review: As a beginner, gardening can be difficult but this book is a big help. Fruit, veggies, perennials, annuals, herb, roses, bulbs, etc. with tons of color pictures. My step-mother and sister-in-law would love to have this book and I paid the list $ at a popular book store here in town. Amazon: great price!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Illustrated Guide to Gardening
Review: As a gardener I find this book invaluable! It covers pruning, gardening, landscaping, propagation, disease, house plants, and multitudes more. It has been a God send to me more than once. Several friends have borrowed this book from me only to purchase it at a later date.

It covers a multitude of sins and illustrates the joys of gardening.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Essential
Review: As someone who doesn't have the money to go buying plants and shrubs to fill the yard, this book has become an invaluable resource. It goes into depth on how to propogate plants, trees, and shrubs, how to take offshoots, how to graft, and how to start from seeds. The info in here is priceless and this book has been in constant use since I purchased it. A must have for every gardener.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's all the information you'll need packed into one book!
Review: I had the use of my sister-in-laws book, but I had to have my own copy! What a great, informative, and easy to use book! As a beginner gardener I wasn't sure how to do the seasonal care, fertilize, do soil checks, water properly, or prune correctly. This book taught me so much! Many helpful and detailed pictures included with the text as well! Worth every penny I spent! I highly recommend this book for any gardening home's reference library!

Summary: Give it a chance
Review: Reader's Digest... what do they know about Gardening?? It was with a disappointed sigh that I received this book as a birthday present in February. But, lo and behold, I opened it in April and have had a hard time putting it down. This is simply a superb! It is clear, concise, very helpful. I highly recommend it as one of the only gardening reference books you'll need.

Summary: new is not better
Review: Upon ordering this item I found several items either missing or lacking. The original had much more information on a broader narative. I a dissapointed with my purchace and of readers digest. There is a readon the previous editions were raved over.

I found the deletion of the house plant section and the deletion of several over views of plant propegation of several species and varieties in addition to gardening in small spaces and green house gardening dissapointing.

Better luck next time
