Great resource!
Would've given it 5 stars, but the cover of the book was beat up looking for being brand new, it's flimsy and not a good type of cover for a "gardening" book, that you will use as a frequent resource and move around alot. I have not even gotten thru the whole book and moved it to different places in my house to read it and learn, not good, might remove it altogether, maybe stick it inside of the cover instead!

Trust Me, Buy the Hard Copy
This is an awesome book on container gardening. Ms. Baldwin accepted the challenge of demystifying succulents and how to grow them. And she did a wonderful job!She starts off by pairing plants with various pot types and styles. From there she talks about the many types of succulents along with some companion plants to consider. At the same time, you can see colorful photos with crisp detail. If you are a visual person like me, I can't say enough good things about the importance of well-developed pictures.She talks about displaying your plants, the proper care and, lastly, she gives you some wonderful plant lists. If you are ever considering growing this family of plants, I would tell you to consider investing in the hard copy. It is money well-spent; you will get much use from this book.

easy and interesting
I recieved my book and have only briefly looked over it but I was very pleased. I was able to quickly look up questions I had and the author had enough information for me to use. The author gives example that a beginner like myself can use or more advanced succulent gardener could appreciate. The photos are beautiful and generous throughout the whole book. I was really happy with this purchase and would recomend it. This book insn't so much of a "how too", so if your looking for step by step,look elsewhere. The title of this book doesnt suggest it's a how too, i just want to help any buyers to know what their getting. This would be a nice gift. The ideas in this book are creative and inspiring!! AAA's all around from me.

Good gardening in pots with succulents book!
This is an excellent book on showcasing succulents. The photography alone is worth the price of the book. I understand the author takes the photos herself. Having said that, this isn't a how to book; it's more about setting up gardens, primarily in pots but also has some emphasis on outdoor gardens. There is a section on care and lists in the back of which succulents need sun or will survive in less light, etc.Ms. Baldwin has written many books on succulents and I'm hard pressed to decide which to buy next. I found one here at Amazon a couple day ago by her that is more about care of succulents so perhaps I'll get it next. I understand her fascination with succulents as they come in so many different shapes, sizes and even some colors such as blue. Many will bloom. They are not water hogs so they will mind their own business if one travels for a week and leaves them to their own devices. Overwatering is the worst thing one can do to a succulent or cactus. Great book.

Beautiful
There is a large selection of incredible ideas shown with photos from both public and private gardens as well as inside homes to the plant show world of competitions. The variety is astounding. There is a generous section on how to care for each type. After leaving California after several years and am now east away from those wonderful 8-10 temperate zones, it was somewhat disappointing how limited we are here to 'hardy' varieties. Anything else we plant must find a spot inside for the winter. But that's no fault of the book. There are many ways shown to manage those arrangements. This is a truly gorgeous book.
