Re: Garden Book Trends

I can only speak from the perspective of having received books to review. Firefly Books in Ontario, Canada, published "Gardening with Conifers," "Begonias," "Ornament in the Small Garden," "Bonsai Life Histories," "Lilacs for the Garden," "Magnolias," "Carnations and Pinks," and "Brugmansia and Datura" this year. I wouldn't sneeze at that. Margaret Lauterbach

I have heard from several peers that some book publishers are not buying
garden book manuscripts currently, because gardening is not a category that
is selling well in stores.  Also, packagers are looking more for food,
convenience and cost cutting topics.  Please feel free to weigh in here with
opinions, information you have gleaned lately and what you have observed.
Also, the book publisher people on the GWL list, how about giving us your
expert insights?
