Summary: Appendix to Dirr's Manual of Woody Landscape Plants
Review: Even though I am glad to have these photos to accompany one of the most important books in horticulture today, I consider this book disappointing.The photos are all black & white, often with poor quality printing so that I found it difficult to see what the picture was showing. Also, even though the photo manual is arranged in much the same way as the text manual (alphabetical order of scientific name), I would have appreciated referral page numbers to the original text manual. For good photos get Dirr's Hardy Trees & Shrubs. It is in full color with excellent photos -- top quality in everyway.
