Hibiscus: Hardy and Tropical Plants for the Garden

This book is easy reading so far. If the instructions though clear was more detailed I would have given it five star rating. The photography is beautiful. I would recommend it as a good reference for some one who just wanted to know about the plant and how to care for it. In it's basic state this book can prevent a lot of plant killing mistakes.

I had hoped this book would have practical advise for beginners, and lots of pictures, and how-tos, such as how to prune, when and where, but I was disappointed, too much information and history that I did not need to know. Not much help for those with plants in containers, and those in the Northeast.

If you are someone wanting to read more about the history and species of Hibiscus, but don't know where to look, Barbara Perry Lawton's book is the place to go. Her book covers everything from history and breeders to native ranges and detailed explanations of more than 200 species of Hibiscus.This book is full of useful information for anyone wanting to learn more about growing these beautiful plants in their garden. Chapters on propagation and cultivation are included and highly informative.This is a great bok for the advanced gardener that would like to learn more about this interesting plant group.
