Instead of sending flowers to grieving friends, I like to send this book because it is beautiful and the flowers last a lot longer than fresh ones would.

As an experienced gardener, I was not looking for a how-to book. This is one of my favorite books however, for reading in those last days of winter when the urge to garden grows with each lengthening day. The pictures are luminous and inspiring. I read it every year.

I enjoyed Mr. Bailey's conversational style. The book is really a journal of his garden. It is not a reference book but it has some very useful tips hidden within. The pictures are marvelous! Mr. Bailey has arranged and photographed his flowers in some unusual ways that are quite appealing. I got this book at the library but I must have a copy for myself.

Good Book, but not for me

This book has some pretty pictures in it and some good information but it is based on a given week in a year of the growing season.I was looking for a garden planning design book but this book is more of a documentary of how the authors flowers bloomed and what he did during the season. It gives recommendations on what to do during the growing season based on the week. It also give instructions on "Potpourri" or "How to make a meadow garden". But these sections are only a page long without any pictures. If you want a book you read through slowly to enjoy another gardeners view then this is the book for you. If you are like me and looking for a reference book, skip this one.
