review 1: Whenever I hear the word "gardening", I always think "vegetable gardening". I have a really hard time understanding why people like to grow things they can't eat. It's a failing of mine, I know.I was very disappointed by this book because only half of it was about things you can eat. That is approximately 100% less food gardening than I wanted. There also wasn't anything really new. The pictures were pretty, though.
review 2: I was disappointed, having heard the author interviewed on "You Bet Your Garden." Was expecting more pictures, particularly of ideas for vertical gardening in more extreme climates. Far too many of his photos are of adorable English cottage gardens, which are lovely, but difficult to transfer to my hot and drought-ridden Oklahoma garden. I... more don't need another set of instructions on how to build a raised bed or compost pile. The author gives recommendations for vegetable varieties appropriate for vertical gardening, but in one case that variety is one he says is unavailable unless you happen to be one of the people he shares seed with. less
