Every flower -- from the Sweet Alyssum to the Giant Zinnia in the annuals group, from the fragrant Daphne to the exotic Monkshood in the perennials group -- is treated with the same explicit detail and informative illustrations that have made the earlier Woman's Day plant books the most popular and useful gudies for the novice and expert gardener alike.
