Book Reviews of California Top 10 Garden Guide: The Plants Most Likely to Thrive in Your Garden (Sunset Books)

Book Review: a good introduction for California gardening
Summary: 4 Stars

I was looking for a general, beginners introduction to gardening in S. California. I think this book is good for showing highlights of what to grow and how to garden in California. I bought it for my daughter, who is new to gardening and short on time and money. It guides one to good choices, particularly in choosing trees and shrubs for the garden. My one slight disappointment: it was very brief on the subject of vegetable gardening- what to grow in each season, and how to set up the garden, soil amendments, watering, etc.
