Product Description

From the Author
These perennials are the top performers in any garden.
I wrote "Perennial All-Stars" to help gardeners identify those choice plants that will be low-maintenance, high-quality, pest and disease-resistant, reliable performers in their gardens. I'm very happy with the look of the book and the enthusiasm with which it's being received. The 150 all-stars are not the only perennials available--there are thousands!--but that's all the more reason why this book is helpful: it points the gardener toward those plants that will be champions in their gardens. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic organization and really easy to use., 13 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Perennial All-Stars (Hardcover)
As a novice gardener, I found this book to be the best of the 10 or so I've looked at to educate myself. Fantastically easy to use. The best feature: the many lists that cover categories such as "Best for Shade," "Fragrant Perennials," etc. Having plants listed in each category helped me narrow down the perennials that made the most sense for the constraints of my yard. In addition, it was great to have a photo of every flower in the book (most books DON'T do this) and the information included in each perennial's profile was very helpful and concise. I could learn, at a glance, the best planting/siting conditions and also get an idea of companion plants to use. I wish more flower & plant books were organized the same way this book is organized and formatted!!

One improvement for this book in the next edition: put the summary info from the "Spotlight" section on a computer-readable file so that readers can electronically arrange and sort their perennial choices by color, season of bloom, etc...

5.0 out of 5 stars Best book for beginning and experienced gardeners!, 10 Jul 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Perennial All-Stars (Hardcover)
Perennial All-Stars is an easy book to use for designing and planting your landscape. Working in a county wide library system I have access to hundreds of gardening books and none has impressed me as much as this one. I had to get it for myself. With 10 flower gardens already in our yard my husband wants to start more using this book.
