Rock Gardening: A Guide to Growing Alpines and Other Wildflowers in the American Garden (Timber Horticultural Reprint Series)

Summary: Down-to-earth, practical advice on gardening
Review: Although this book is titled "Rock Gardening", it has great appeal to all gardeners. It includes introductory information on how to create rock, bog and woodland gardens, how to propagate plants, maintenance, etc. But the best part is the comprehensive plant descriptions, with practical advice on their cultural requirements, difficulty and propagation. Although there are no color pictures, I find this is the book I rely upon most for accurate information on lesser known rock garden and woodland plants.
