Review: Fantastic. Great for beginners - I absolutely love this book. It's great, it is a quick read that provides a lot of concise good information on specific species of plant. The general idea of the book tho is "Don't overeater" but I do like this book and it's helpful enough. Not something I have to look in all the time but that's cuz I took college plant classes.
Review: Great for beginner plant owners! - Bought this as a gift because we like our copy so much! It's easy to use and gives you all the important information without being overwhelming.
