Media Reviews
A good topical read for a winter's day.
Every garden can benefit from the element of surprise provided by the plants described here.
Buffin possesses an intimate knowledge of the surprisingly subtle yet magical displays that characterize gardens in wintertime. The cultivation tips accompanying entries will inspire, inform, and prepare gardeners looking for exceptional specimens to incorporate all-year-round interest.
The book is very readable, it is not just a reference book.
Buffin is well equipped to launch us in rewarding directions when it comes to appreciating winter's opportunities. I recommend this book to those seeking to expand their appreciation of winter's multiple offerings.
