Dr. Joe White is one of the most, if not the most respected horticulturist in the state of Louisiana. His advice is always on target and the book would make a great addition to any home library.
A wonderful reminder of childhood memories and gardening
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I received this book as a birthday gift and haven't been able to put it down. It evoked childhood memories of Sasanquas in bowls, spider lillies in beloved friends' yards, and laughter at funny names like "Grancy Graybeard." I remembered a gigantic yellow Lady Banksea rose that grew so large it took over the roof of my playhouse. Thanks for the memories and helpful advice. Even my grandfather the masterful gardener would approve.
The best of its kind on this topic!

Very informative book especially for a first time gardener.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
If you are looking for an complete and easy to use book this is the one to purchase. There are some color pictures (annuals, groundcovers, ornamental grasses, perennials, shrubs, trees, wildflowers, etc.) but what makes the book so good is the layout - when, where and how to plant, care & maintenance, additional information and additional species.
