As advertised, delivered promptly. Book is so, so.
An highly inspiring book :very well illustrated and the text is professionally written . I bought many perennials because of this book and so far ,no regrets .
I bought this for my husband who is an avid gardener. He says the book is very good, and gave him ideas for ordering from his spring catalogs.
One of the best aspects of a perennial garden is its ability to thrill us with a cornucopia of blooms with very little additional effort on our part. Adrian Bloom shows gardeners how to create outdoor "rooms" of flowering drama, highlighted by bursts of color, texture and height certain to thrill even the casual observer.
I recently heard Adrian Bloom speak and was intrigued by his wonderful color combinations. This is a great book with absolutely wonderful pictures and explanations of 400 garden worthy perennials and grasses.
Adrian Bloom is the son of Alan Bloom, the plantsman who started Blooms of Bressingham, the noted plant breeders and nursery. Plants are in his blood.
We have here photos of Foggy Bottom and The Bressingham Gardens in Norfolk UK. Plenty of wonderful photos of perennials and grasses fill this new book.
At last, a book for gardeners who are overwhelmed by the huge size of iconic estates, when they study them for design inspiration. Adrian Bloom understands the predicament; he is a reliable mentor for the do-it-yourself gardener.
