• Comprehesive Reference On Nw Gardening 04 June, 2003
Of the books I own on NW native plant gardening, this book is my most often referenced. It is full of detailed information about a vast array of NW native plants. Dr. Kruckeberg's enthusiasm for the propogation and stewardship of NW natives shines throughout the book. However, this is not a book about landscaping or effective planting combinations; it is a scholarly work that may be useful to a homeowner interested in native plants and their care, or to the professional landscaper in need of detailed reference information. I am impressed by the breadth of the author's knowledge.

• Disappointed 13 April, 2005
I was very disappointed to see the lack of color photos in the book. There are color photos on the cover and back and also a section in the middle but most of the book contained black and white photos and black and white drawings.
Other than that, the book seems very informative.

• Must-have For The Eco-aware Gardener In The Nw 24 May, 2008
While not the most logically arranged book, the contents of this amazing book are worth the hunt. It is far and away the single most comprehensive resource I've found for anyone wishing to introduce NW native plants into their garden.

• Not A Picture Book 05 November, 2006
A nice introduction (and more) to native plants of the Pacific Northwest. My only criticism about it is that it doesn't have great photos. I bought this book to give me an intro to plants in that area, as I'm designing a garden for a friend. This book doesn't give much sense of what the plants look like in a garden. I'll have to go there. It's comparable to Judith Phillip's book Southwestern Landscaping with Native Plants (for, obviously, a different part of the country).
