Excellent! October 15, 2008
Extremely well done. Lots of great information and fabulous photos. Can't wait for the next book. I am telling all of my gardening friends to purchase this book. Everyone should have beautiful containers to adorn their homes.
A Good Resource June 4, 2008
I very much enjoyed this book. I do a lot of containers and this book gave great tips on plants that do well in containers. The containers the author uses are much bigger than mine, but the concepts are the same, I just use fewer plants. This book is a keeper, and one I will refer to time and again.

This book is great. When I use a garden book, I like photos and this one is loaded with them. It is also simple to follow and has great advice for new container gardeners or veterans. I adapted some of the ideas to a garden bed as well and they look great.

Living in Georgia and loving gardening and I am transitioning into container gardening !
"Easy Container Gardens" explain, educate and walk you through textures, colors, and color combinations of plants to recipes of success for containers. My reaction to the cover photo is "I can do that," showing complimentary plant blooms. There is a lengthy chapter on container basics. And another chapter on "Best Container Plants" sums up the Blue ribbon winners and container successes. The color photos are just beautiful and an inspiration to be creative with plants.

Wow! Pamela did it again! I already owned another book by Pamela so when I saw Easy Container Gardens on a friend's coffee table I just had to take a look. Once I got into the book I didn't want to put it down, even for the supper call! I had to have my own copy. I love the quote on the front, "For anyone who has ever killed a plant!" She might as well add my name to that list. Pamela's books are always so helpful with directions, pictures (wow, what pictures), and suggestions for keeping your plants among the living. Easy Container Gardens is written so that it is easy to read with lots of step by step directions that will make you look like a pro. I feel that Pamela has a personal connection with every living thing by the way she knows her stuff. I highly recommend this book to those who garden, those who want to garden, or those who just like to look at beautiful pictures of gardens. Go get your own copy. You'll be glad you did!
