5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous Pots, 6 Jan 2002

By	Ros Sare (Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire) - See all my reviews

We bought "The Ultimate Container Garden" by David Joyce five years ago, when we moved to our new house. We have a large patio and no flower beds, so colour has to be achieved with planting pots & containers. David Joyce's schemes and ideas have been simple to carry out and have produced outstanding results. We are not very good gardeners, but our patio is full of colour from May to November. I recommend this book without reservation.

5.0 out of 5 stars covers everything, 15 Feb 2007

By	Brighton Gardener "loulou4252" (UK) - See all my reviews

Fantastic book. Great colour photos, yes some of the gardens you may have seen before but a really diverse mixture of containers to inspire you which come with 'recipes' and cross referenced to the plant info at the back of the book. Also details of how to propagate, winter protection, pests and diseases and just about all you need to know. Easy to follow format, highly recomended.
