3.0 out of 5 stars Some good info but disapointing, 8 Jun 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Creating a Low-Allergen Garden (Hardcover)
There are lots of good pictures and some general advice for low allergy gardening but if you are only going to get one book it would have to be the Ogren book. The garden designs and plants covered here aren't going to be suitable at all for Southern California gardeners. Most of the plants recomended are high water use and/or cool climate plants. Not much thought is given to low maintenance gardens. The options listed for large trees are minimal. The very best trees, which are female varieties of separatly sexed trees, aren't mentioned at all. Common names of plants are rarely given. While there are many good pictures you have to read carefully to find out whether the pictured plant is recomended or not recomended. Overall I found this book not to be as usefull as it could have been.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent source of information about allergies., 3 Sep 1998
By R. G. Davis "treethyme" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Creating a Low-Allergen Garden (Hardcover)
Lucy Huntington designed a low-allergen garden for the Cincinnati Flower Show this year. Her book is authoratative and very informative about allergies and how to avoid or control allergy problems when gardening. Fascinating for any allergy-sufferers; contains useful information about low allergen plants, too.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a proactive approach, rather than reactive, 26 May 2001
By pelicanlake71 "pelicanlake71" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Creating a Low-Allergen Garden (Hardcover)
Instead of just listing "bad" plants, the author lists not only WHY a plant may cause an allergic or poisonous reaction, but also suggests alternate, safer plants with similar qualities! Rather than being written dryly by a doctor, the author is instead an award-winning British landscape designer who really did her research. The reader feels that finally there is hope for the allergy-sufferer who wants a garden that is both safe and lush rather than sterile and bland. Cheers!
