Editorial Reviews From the Back Cover As a popular pastime, perennial gardening is regarded with equal parts admiration and apprehension. Admiration because the beauty of a perennial bed can be enjoyed for all time; and apprehension because the myriad plant varieties and their growing requirements can be daunting. Successful Perennial Gardening is the work of two gardening experts, Lewis and Nancy Hill, who bring the breadth of their experience to this subject, and have created a volume of enduring quality. This is a user-friendly guide to the challenges and joys of perennial gardening -- less than a botanical encyclopedia, but much more than a volume of garden or species descriptions. The authors' approach will resolve the quandries of those new to perennials as well as meet the needs of the sophisticated horticulturist.

The Hills educate and inspire with information that is complete and easily accessible: they tell how to divide and propagate your perennials, how to keep them pest and disease free; how to use them to best advantage; and how to maximize your enjoyment of them by cutting and drying them, growing a child's garden or a butterfly and hummingbird garden, or giving the flowers and plants as gifts.
