Indispensible

This book divides plants and shrubs into hieghts and seasons and then allows the reader to flip parts of the pages to mix and match by virtue of the pages being quartered. You can flip page sections to arrive at the perfect verticle combo, like those children's books that allow you to put an alligator head on top of a mouse body with duck's feet because the pages are divided. It's the easiest, most fun, comprehensive book on gardening I own - and I've got tons of 'em. This is a must own for anyone planning a garden, or who wants a quick plant reference with all of the most important information you need at your fingertips. each 1/4 page has the size, seasonality, care, good illustration, flash symbols, region, latin name, and brief review of the plant.
