5.0 out of 5 stars an eye-popping introduction to using ornamental grasses, 16 Feb 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Gardening with Grasses (Hardcover)
The gorgeous photos in this book are all that is needed toa convince us that we have negelcted this group of plants in our gardends for too long. The pictures are backed up with very informative and well written text, including many charts showing companion plants and plants for specific sites and conditions. There is a catalog of the authors' recommended species and cultivars. It includes USDA zone information for U.S. gardeners. Hopefully this volume will encourage plant suppliers to offer more of these fine plants, including the wonderful cultivars selected by Piet Oudolf.
