Good information but I feel some details were too brief in order to manage the size of the book. The derails are accurate and we'll written. Good illustrations and I feel this is a good reference for any gardener.
This is now my go-to book for gardening here in the Pacific Northwest. It's well laid-out and easy to find information on everything you would expect, from annuals, perennials, trees and shrubs. I do with it included information on pest control and diagnosing problems on plants in our area.
Beautifully crafted book that every Northwest gardener should have on his or her shelf! The photography illustrating shrubs, plants, and flowers is excellent, and the writing is clear, easy to read and understand, and it's also friendly and warm - as if you and a friend are walking through the garden and you're getting the best possible advice on what, how, and when to plant. Author Pat Munts is a well-known garden and plant expert with decades of experience in the Pacific Northwest and a trusted resource when it comes to this topic. And if you don't personally need this book (and you do need this book if you have any type of yard!), it's perfect as a gift for someone who does.
Great info. Great pictures. So much better than the recent Sunset Western Garden Book.
Awesome book and would recommend to anyone living in the Pacific Northwest.
Excellent, very comprehensive.
