A through, attractive guide

The joys of imagination and planning are many in Crandall and Crandall's thorough guide. Accompanied by clear how-to advice and beautiful color photographs, the book covers attractive supports, pruning, maintaining and propagating advice as well as how to use vines for space maximizing, camouflage, fruit, scent or just beauty.Separated into chapters such as Hardy Vines, Annual Climbers, Climbing Roses, Ground Covers and Edible Fruits, the entries are packed with descriptive flowering and planting information as well as caveats and possible disease and insect problems. For less hardy vines there is advice for bringing them inside.
