Highly recommended. You get two expert guides to help you find your own path in container gardening with edibles. I loved the two-author commentary throughout. Lovely illustrations, and it's easy to find and read only what you want or read it straight through like a novel.

Truly a pleasure to read. Very well written by its two authors, this book provides great descriptions of each plant and clear instructions on how to grow it. It is virtually an encyclopedia of vegetables, herbs, and edible flowers--at least the ones you can grow in a container. You'll find yourself reading some of the descriptions for pleasure even if you aren't interested in growing that particular plan. And you'll learn a lot along the way.

Like all books I have read from Workman, it is beautifully put together. Some may find the lack of color photographs a drawback, but you can always Google those. A lot of books that have great pictures don't give you any decent instructions! This book is wonderful.

Now, we'll see if my grape tomatoes and red bell peppers actually grow. Planting some beets tomorrow....

Fantastic resource for people interested in container gardening edibles and non-edibles alike. Lots of great tips, easy to use and arranged nicely for quick reference. One of the very best parts are all the "recipes" for mixed containers, so that you can maximize your space & harvest. Lacks full-color illustrations, but that is the single criticism I have for this book. A must for container gardeners and urban farmers.
