Title: Excellent book
Review: A full size book that guides you to the basic knowledge needs. I expect it to get a workout in the greenhouse. The binding is a little light. It might take a beating during use. Small detail I enjoy, the two page holders glued into the binding. Always need these to find where I was and reference markers. In all it is well worth the price.

Title: Beautiful Book - but cover is damaged
Review: This book as a whole is beautiful. Itâs so informative. But unfortunately the cover is all scratched up, dented, and worn from delivery. I am disappointed as this is such an eye catching cover. I will be returning it soon and I might just purchase it from Barnes and Noble since the covers are brand new.

Title: Pretty but not comprehensive
Review: I have a background in botany, and every so often go on a binge and get some more house plants, then look around for something to give me more information on how to care for them. This book got nice reviews so I ordered it. The good news: beautiful illustrations and good information on individual plant care. The bad news: not very comprehensive. It's about 400 pages, and maybe 360 are devoted to one plant per two pages -- so say 180 plants. When I started looking up individual plants, I didn't find most I was looking for. (Admittedly I was often looking for something less common than you expect at the average plant shop -- but nothing really rare.). So, it doesn't provide nearly the coverage I'd hoped for. Partly, perhaps because the authors are from Australia and focus on a somewhat different set of houseplants than one finds in the US. In any case, a beautiful book and probably helpful for a beginner, but not really the right book for someone more advanced wanting a really comprehensive coverage.
