Product Description

Review
"A first-class reference book describing over 400 geraniums, including many of the latest cultivars. The photographs are excellent, detailing both flowers and leaves for quick and easy identification of plants, the descriptions clear and concise." -- Sue Tasker "Professional Gardner"

Product Description
Infinitely varied, incredibly robust and blessed with a long flowering period, it is little surprise that hardy geraniums are many gardeners' number one perennial. In nature, their habitat extends from woods to sunny mountainsides, so there is a geranium for every position in the garden. A wide range of colour and markings on both flower and leaf, along with a delightfully relaxed habit, ensures their contribution to the garden throughout the summer season. There are over 400 geraniums described in the book including many of the latest garden-worthy cultivars. Over 450 photographs turn the spotlight on individual characteristics allowing enthusiasts to compare and contrast colour, flower shape and markings. This is both an authoritative reference work and an inspiration to gardeners everywhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb!, 28 Aug 2005
By Herbert Frei-Schindler (Zurich, Switzerland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I already owned the well-known books on hardy geraniums by Trevor Bath / Joy Jones and Peter Yeo when this new book was published, so at first I hesitated a little before buying yet another book about this increasingly popular garden plant. I have not regretted buying it. I would't want to be without the other two books but the newcomer has a lot to offer: You will find many new cultivars that were unknown to the other authors; it's interesting to compare the experiences of someone gardening in Denmark, where climatic conditions are tougher, to those of English gardeners; there is a fascinating chapter on a leading Dutch breeder of geraniums; you'll find excellent chapters on cultivation and propagation, illustrated with useful pictures; there are 450 brilliant photographs, among them close-ups of flowers and leaves, so you can compare them handily, but also of whole plants and borders, so you get the "micro-perspective" as well as the "macro-perspective"; and, last not least, the author shows real passion when writing, very competently and wittily, about gardening with geraniums. If you are looking for a systematic and scientific monograph about cranesbills, you are better served with Peter Yeo's standard work (2nd edition), but if you are gardening and as crazy about geraniums as I am - then you can't do without this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Geranium delight!, 11 Oct 2007
By J. Kay - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is an absolute delight for Geranium lovers! An abundance of beautiful photos will help lessen the need to search the internet to see what a particular species looks like. Each description has an initial simple guide to it's growing conditions so you can see at a glance what position it's suitable for, along with height, when it flowers, colour and propagation. The pictoral guide to propagation is so clear I want to go out and start multipling my plants now! I too have Trevor Bath's/Joy Jones book on Hardy Geraniums along with Stefan Buczacki's Best Geraniums but this is definately my favourite reference book.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best, 2 Feb 2009
I have quite a lot of hardy geraniums in my garden, and I'm always checking the available reference books on them. This book, in my opinion, is by far the best resource for gardeners on hardy geraniums. The photographs are excellent, it's easy and enjoyable to read, and is quite up-to-date and comprehensive. The Yeo book and the Wisley handbook are good too, but if you're going to buy only one book on the topic, buy this one.
