It has about 75 color pix, enough to show a range of color and form. Most
are not full page. But there is definitely enough color to induce drool!
One feature I especially appreciated is chapter 8 on Culture. 15 different
growers each wrote a few pages, discussing culture in their particular
geographical location--from Germany to Australia to Japan, and eleven
different U.S. areas. I would think any serious or semi-serious La. grower
would want the book.

(Newfield, NY) ugh, more snow last night. 30 degrees F. Definitely time to
drool and dream.
