5-0 out of 5 stars Great Book.Funny Too.
I've owned this book since the seventies. I like it for its easy instructions that are really geared to sucess if followed. The humor is a plus! I have gone back to it over and over through the years. This morning, I was trying to find out how to germinate a cherry seed but,alas, that's not included. Not to worry I have lots of pits and will just see what happens. I only wish an updated issue of this book would soon emerge!

5-0 out of 5 stars Great information and extremely entertaining!
I've read a lot of gardening books and by far this is my favorite. Not only is it informative and the only book I've ever seen on the subject- it reads better than many novels I've read!
5-0 out of 5 stars Fun and helpful
What a fun book!Informative too.I couldn't put it down, and have since grown my *own* avocado plant with my toddler (we named ours Audrey).The stories associated with the author's experience with each plant are funny, sometimes hysterically so.My favorite was the image of him standing on a ladder forcefully throwing coconuts into a bathtub filled with saltwater to simulate coconuts falling out of a tree into the ocean.Don't worry, after describing how he experiments, he tells you the easier shortcuts (a ladder wouldn't fit into my bathroom anyway).Reading it makes you want to immediately buy and eat the exotic fruits he describes just for the seeds and the fun of trying to grow them (inside, my favorite place - no bugs, controlled climate, etc.).My only complaint is that the fruits are indeed largely exotic.The fruits in the book include mango, Chinese gooseberry, prickly pear, sugarcane, and pomegranate.I was hoping for some plain orange, lemon, or apple seed hints as well.Maybe other people are better at growing such ordinary plants, or at least less intimidated than me, but I loved having the plant-specific instructions that maximize the chances of success.Overall, I'd highly recommend this book, especially for those who would like to have a green thumb but just don't quite (like me) or for those who just like funny stories.Here's hoping for a sequel, even after all this time! :-) ...

5-0 out of 5 stars An excellent resource
I used this book to research a project for my Plant Pathology class, and was surprised to learn that there are very few books available on the diseases of indoor plants. A. R. Chase does a wonderful job of organizing usful details about the prevention, diagnosis and control of diseases found in indoor plants. The details of how each disease relates to individual plants are particularly helpful. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars A Talking Plant Encyclopedia!
There's lots of great information on this CD.I really like having access to Allan's plant knowledge at my fingertips.The CD includes information on hundreds of perennials...information such as hardiness zones, light tolerance, growth rate, height, spread, bloom season, and a concise description.Each plant has at least one still photograph, and some of them even have a short video clip of Allan in his garden talking about the plant.5-0 out of 5 stars Learn About Perennials From An Expert
This CD includes a lot of information, photos and videos about many perennials from one of the great perennial experts. Videos of some of his favorite and not-so-favorite plants make using the CD interesting and fun to use.Seeing and hearing Armitage talk about plants is entertaining.This is a great tool for students as well as home gardeners.

3-0 out of 5 stars Slightly antiquated Bonsai book
While the trees themselves have not changes, books have.This book is good, but there are better Bonsai books out there that are available for the beginner.Check out "The Complete Book of Bonsai" by Harry Tomlinson instead

4-0 out of 5 stars Indoor Bonsai

5-0 out of 5 stars Great book to have at hand
With the literally thousands of different types and varieties of houseplants available on the market, it's no surprise that there are some that are missing from this book. However, most (all?) of the main ones are here, and so too is a wealth of information on how to grow them. I bought this book 10 or 15 years ago, and it helped me go from perennial plant killer (it was the killing that was perennial, not just perennials that were killed), to a reasonably green thumb. I'm not a super gardener or anything. I just like houseplants and needed some basic info on how to care for them. It's all here.

5-0 out of 5 stars Houseplants for Everyone
I just love this book. I can't imagine having houseplants without it.I have it all marked with the Post-it flags so I can find my plants quickly.I'm going to get a little wordy here, but this is a great book with a lot of great features.I use it more that any of the other plant books I own.5-0 out of 5 stars An excellent & concise houseplant reference.
An excellent & concise houseplant reference.It will show you what is commonly done wrong with plants and what you can to to promote growth/flowering.Also included is a cross reference for temperatures andother environmental variables that you may wish to choose plants for. There are also many good quality pictures that can help you immediatelyidentify 'that plant you've killed over & over' and a reference to theinstructions that can make the difference. Good book. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Read the book, look at the flowers;then you'll understand
When I first bought this book, I was sorely disappointed, not by the beauty of the blooms (and they are truly magnificent), but by the fact that they hid the body of the plant underneath in most cases. I didn't know as much about cacti as I do now. I also felt that I couldn't equate my humble little 5" pots to the outdoor giants depicted too. Now I know. You need to know about the flower before you can understand the cactus, and quite often, trying to identify one cactus not in flower from another is almost impossible because so many have similar characteristics. Just wait until the flowers start, and then you understand exactly what's what, and why some succulents look like cacti, but aren't. Sound confusing? It is, to begin with, but Miles Anderson brings it all to life in this glory of a book, and gradually, all the pieces begin to fall into shape. I would recommend this highly to anyone with an interest in knowing what they're growing, or with a penchant for beautiful photographs. Read his advice carefully, and you'll soon have the blooms for your identification. A lovely book.

5-0 out of 5 stars I genuinely like this book!
In my never ending quest to find informative, user-friendly guides on houseplants, this one comes up a definite winner!The author's stated intent is to provide a guide to identification and growing, and the entire book is geared to exactly that, with a friendly, informative tone throughout.Read more
