This book is a must have for any gardener that wishes to propagate their plants. It has a step-by-step illustration of how to propagate numerous plants and fully explains all the techniques.
I love this book! My librarian jokingly threatened to restrict the times I was allowed to check it out so that other patrons could get it too. So I went out and bought my own at half.com. I especially like the cuttings section and have grown my own eunomous hedge from cuttings of one bush last summer. It is a great reference when you find the planting info on the seed packets lacking. Would love to have a few more details about each plant, they only give specific propagation information. Overall, a necessary reference book for cheapies like me who like to grow as many plants for the lowest price I can.
I have this book at my finger tips ready to look up anything and everything about propagating plants.
I especially like the cuttings sections and how the different types are explained, such as green wood, semi ripe and hardwood etc.
I have limited experience with some types of plants and especially the different shrubs.
I use this guide as a help to save myself money by making two or three more "Free" plants from everyone I buy or have in my garden.
Lots of fun when the growing season is petering out and you are looking for something to do in the late summer and fall.
I feel this book is helpful for the one's just starting (just like myself) but I found some big gaps in the information I that really wanted to know about several different plants.
Very informative "reference" type book. Easy to look things up with the index. It has many step by step instructions as well as pictures to help you visualize each step. Worth every penny!
