Ortho Complete Perennials Book, 2008-11-05
I own a lot of books, especially gardening books, and this is by far the best of them! If you have any interest in perennials, whether you're a beginner or an expert, this is the book for you. It covers it all. How to design a perennial flower bed, specifics (hardiness zones, height, water needs, when they bloom, bloom duration, sun/shade needs, soil requirements, recommended species, growth rates, fertilizer needs, when they should be divided, disease and insect problems, how the plant develops new plants ie: offsets, runners, etc.). Includes lists of plants and designs for different types of gardens; butterfly, hummingbird, water-thrifty, damp-soil, shade, small-space, rock, and foliage. Plus different charts that compare plant size, season of bloom and colors. Also gives specifics on approximately 187 perennials. I dare call it the 'Bible of perennials' book. Enjoy perennials?- get this book!
