Summary: Great for people with brown thumbs.
Review: As a person who seems to kill every plant she owns (even cacti), I picked up this book when planning to create a kitchen herb garden. I really learned a lot.

Summary: A Beginner's Herb-Growing Bible!
Review: I happened to run across (and purchase) this book when I was first researching herb growing. Boy, did I luck out!This beautifuly arranged and designed book, is a wonderful resource for rookie herbalists/gardeners. Topics include the selecting and growing of herbs, harvesting and preserving herbs, and creating gifs and recipes with herbs. Each bit of instruction is followed by an informative set of pictures or diagrams. Thanks to this book I was able to grow and harvest my first potted herb garden -- and make some pretty tasty herb butter to boot. I would caution experienced gardeners and herbalists against purchasing this book, as it will most likely be too basic for them. Before I end this, though, here's a gift idea that I made for a friend as a housewarming gift. Wrap up this book along with a tiny garden shovel, gloves, potting soil, clay pots, and seeds. She/he will be delighted!
