"Exciting approach to practical landscaping and gardening for the home edibles enthusiast. Found much of the information extremely helpful. She is a bit of an environmentalist nut when it comes to fertilizer use though."
"I was most impressed by the plant encyclopedia in the back of the book. From that, I compiled a long list of plants that we'd like to have in our garden/landscaping. I especially appreciated her difficulty rating for each plant - i.e. how easy or difficult is the plant to both take care of and harvest. It's nice to know what we're getting into. The book is from 1982 so it seems a little outdated, but on the whole, it was helpful. I also really loved the drawings of each plant - they were beautiful. Sadly, I have to return it to the library. I'll probably go back in a couple weeks and check it out again!
If you're looking to add edible plants to your landscaping, this is a nice resource - and inspiring."
