5.0 out of 5 stars RHS Encyclopedia of Plants & Flowers, 4 Mar 2006

By	"duckie6819" - See all my reviews

The first thought that went through my mind when I was able to look at the book for the first time was - WOW!

It is a well written guide with pages and pages of beautiful pictures to get inspired by. And I found it very easy to read as well. The description and growing needs of every plant and flower is written in a simple to follow way.

This book has so much information on so many plants, I could keep myself easily entertained right up until mid-spring. Just in time for putting the information I learned into use!

I'm so happy to have bought this book, I am already looking into this author's past books on houseplants too.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favourite plant book, 9 Aug 2006

By	M. Frecklington "I can't read" (Lincoln) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Loving this book but there are down sides! Im not sure about the way its layed out. The book is split into two sections the first is layed out in a strange mix of plant type and flower colour. The second is the description etc that is layed out in the normal alphabetical way. Still all the excellent colour pictures make up for any bad points.
