Practical Botany for Gardeners: Over 3,000 Botanical Terms Explained and Explored

Not only are the illustrations so beautiful, I love that it helps grow my knowledge about plants. It's a nice coffee table accessory as well. But it's actually a good read if your into nature, landsacping, gardening, etc!

My 16 year old son is extremely interested in all aspects of plants and loves this

The info is great and the presentation is beatiful

This book is fantastic. There is a ton of information and it is easy to read. If you are a fan of gardening and want to learn more about the science behind it I would highly recommend this book.

I love the illustrations and descriptions included in this book. It covers a wide range of botanical topics from species descriptions to plant life development. It’s very informative and clearly written. It is a welcome addition to my collection of books on gardening.

Landscaping is emotionally exciting, whether adding a few plants or making major changes. However, designing and planting as exciting as they may be are only the beginning stages. To maintain that energy and develop a rewarding satisfaction requires knowledge about the plants and how to take care of them. This book I think is most helpful because it conceptually helps one understand plants as living species requiring differentiated care depending on their unique biological considerations. This book introduces the reader to the life cycle of the plant world which not only assists in propagation but also what to expect from each plant after each season as it matures. I feel this book has made me a better gardener by appreciating the natural development of plants.

I like that it is a book about plants. I like plants and books so you can only imagine my delight when I opened the cover and lo and behold there was the table of contents. Although it pretty much gave the entire book away, the table of contents accurately described what was on all of the pages. And you guessed it, the pages have words and pictures about plants.

This is one of the most beautiful books I have ever owned. Honestly the illustrations alone are worth the purchase. I love plants and this is a great tool, but I also am a painter and this is a great reference tool! Would highly recommend this book to any avid gardener, artist, or nature/plant lover!

Exactly the same as RHS Botany for Gardeners! It is no different.

Wish this had been written many years ago. A great ready with fantastic pictures and thoroughly written text
