Media Reviews
Although this book is a useful how-to, it also provides great armchair reading, for both the clarity of the prose and the intriguing background provided for the selections. ... [Reich] provides us with a fascinating opportunity to bridge the gap between the ordinary and the exotic, with the garden at the conjunction. ... [A] great addition to the gardening bookshelf.
Allison Tsu Bloomsbury Review 01/05/2005
[The author] is quite serious about the 'for every garden' part of the title. This goes far beyond basic botanical descriptions and hints on growing and utilization: Reich provides abundant details on propagation, planting, fruit harvest and storage, as well as annotated lists of cultivars.
