Reviewers Wanted

Barbara Ellis and I recently completed Burpee-The Complete Flower Gardener  
(John Wiley) and are looking for garden writers associated with  magazines, 
newspapers, radio programs,  online sites, and other media who would be 
interested in seeing the book for  possible review. 
Burpee-The  Complete Flower Gardener is a  comprehensive, environmentally 
friendly approach to flower gardening, from  understanding the basics of flower 
anatomy, choosing a garden site, and  designing, planting, and maintaining beds 
and borders to propagating plants,  selecting tools, and creating special 
gardens, including container gardens,  cutting gardens, edible flower gardens, 
native plant gardens, water gardens,  butterfly gardens, and more. “Plant 
Portraits,” an encyclopedia of flowers for  North American gardens, makes up the book
’s second portion; it details more  than 175 plants, with at least one 
full-color photograph per  entry. 
The book also contains a current USDA plant hardiness zone map, spring  and 
fall frost dates for locations throughout North America, lists of mail-order  
and on-line sources for seeds, plants, tools, and garden supplies, equipment,  
and organic controls, as well as sources of additional information, such as  
horticultural publications and organizations.
