reviewed ROSES: FOR YOUR GAOPEN on March 03, 2013 ROSES
Last year's drought followed by a long hard winter killed almost all the flowers we had planted (mostly on a whim) throughout the various beds in our yard. That was a good motivation to finally learn something about growing flowers and glancing through "Perennials for..." at our local B&N made it seem like an excellent place to start... and it has been!
It probably helps if you know a little something about gardening in the first place... like what tools to use... or what compost is... But if you have a basic knowledge of growing stuff outdoors the specific skill updates in the short "how to" section are quite useful to get you in gear focusing on perennial flowers.
There is a very nice three page section showing all the flowers covered in the book for easy reference and the short 2-4 pages dedicated to each plant are very accessible and have just the information you need to figure out which will do best in your particular garden(s). A very handy reference that I know I'll be using for years to come. Go pick up a copy if you want to grow some beautiful flowers!
