Summary: A Wonderful Guide for Beginning Gardeners
Review: I am a beginning gardener and this book has been a great help to me. The information that this book contains is invaluable to beginning gardeners. The way this book is set up, it makes it very easy to use, from soil, fertilizing, watering and general care, to picking out the plants. I enjoy watching hummingbirds and this book even has tips on which plants will help attract them!

Review: I have all of Tova's written materials. She is a terrific resource for information on all types of gardening. She also has a great radio program with all kinds of useful advice for callers. I have also seen her do live demonstrations and lectures. I highly recommend her work.

Review: In depth information for the avid high desert gardner or the weekender. Easy to follow instructions on care and maintenance. Creative feature of breaking up the seasons, showing what will bloom when, combined with beautiful pictures of the flowers and how to best use them in the landscape. A must have for high desert gardening!

Summary: Perennials for Intermountain and High Desert.
Review: My husband and I are landscaping our front yard. We have lived in Reno, Nevada only 2 years and were at a loss as to what flourishes in our climate and soil. After reading Ms. Roseman's book, we were able to decide what to plant for each season so we could have color and foliage 365 days a year! Excellent book for beginners and the gardening expert. Wonderfully written with superb graphics. Highly recommended.

Summary: The best gardening book ever
Review: This book is fabulous. I refer to it constantly. I live in an area where it is very difficult to grow certain plants that will survive. This book is written just for such areas. It helps me to choose plants for this area and care for them. This is not a general gardening book, but a specific gardening book for this area. Anyone that lives in a high desert or intermountain region would benefit from owning this book.
The book is organized well and enjoyable to read. I would recommend this book to anyone that lives in this region.

Summary: Like Perennials? You'll love this book!
Review: Tova's book is a MUST have for the anyone who wants to grow perennials. It shows you how to take advantage of microclimates in your garden so you can grow plants that are listed out of your USDA or Sunset zone. Then the gardener, from the beginner to the most ambitious, can experiment with a wider variety of plants.

I also like the straight-forward way the book is written. Find the season you want, the plants are listed in alphabetical order by season of bloom with a list of the plant's essential needs. This way you don't need to read 10 paragraphs about the plant to find how much sunlight it requires. The pictures are also not only accurate but artistic.
