Reader Reviews
This book's wealth of practical infomation is presented in a well thought out, easy to understand fashion. Chapters one through four are devoted to the planning of and caring for a cutting garden, as well as creating attractive floral arrangements. Without a doubt, though, my favorite section of the book is the 53 page Encyclopedia of Plants which lists 212 perennials, annuals, herbs, tubers, corms, bulbs, vines, shrubs, and, yes, even an occasional small tree which make suitable cut flowers. Each entry in the encyclopedia contains a photograph and description as well as tips on growing conditions, planting, care, and harvesting and conditioning. Ever wonder which cut flowers require searing, splitting or dipping into boiling water? You'll find the answers here!
