Favorite garden books?
I have a stack of gardening books that I keep handy in my living room.
I delve into the books for information to put into this blog or whenever I’m looking up a new plant and want to learn all about it before purchasing it, or in most cases after I’ve purchased it. Yes I’m an impulse plant purchaser.
I was wondering what kinds of gardening books my readers have at home? Here’s a list of what I have on hand:
- Botanica’s Pocket - Annuals & Perennials
- Ortho’s All about Azaleas, Camellias & Rhododendrons
- 500 Popular Roses
- 100 Easy to Grow native Plants for Canadian Gardens
- The complete book of Garden Flowers
- Readers Digest Illustrated Guide to Gardening in Canada
- Complete Guide to Gardening (Better Homes and Gardens)
- Botanica - The illustrated A-Z of over 10,000 plants
I think I’ve got a good start to my collection. What do you have that I should be sure to get for myself?

I also have quite a few gardening books, but I’m not sure I have any that you have listed, except maybe The Complete Book of Garden Flowers.
