It's huge, it's thick, it's heavy. The first half is on glossy paper and has lots of photos. The second half is on matte paper and is a plant listing with a few line drawings only. It is not altogether successful. Too much information, but not a handy way to get at what one wants to know. I rarely want to read about a particular plant, nor do I want fluffy advice on using hostas for shade. However, this is such a monster of a book that I shall probably lug it around with me for a few more years yet.
