We think it will be difficult to top the broad coverage, detailed advice based on personal experiences, and delightful humor to be found in abundance in Moss Gardening. Bravo, George Schenk!, Moss Gardening, Including Lichens, Liverworts, and Other Miniatures helps to sort out the often confusing differences between these wonderful plants and offers fresh perspectives to garden design with the use of these ancient plants., This delightful book opens our eyes to mosses and other miniature plants in gardens. . . . Many excellent color photographs inspire the reader to try growing these miniatures or to examine them more carefully. . . . This book. . . recieved an American Horticulture Award., It is the most clearly written book on mosses that I have run across. There is a chapter on growing moss in containers, but, even better a chapter devoted to moss for Bonsai!! Oh, happy day! I have found information on this subject to be scarce, but here it is covered in detail. Mention is made of the Pacific Rim Collection and comments by David De Grott. A very nice book which, in my opinion, is the most detailed discussion of moss, written for the layman, to be found anywhere. Check it out.|9780881923704|, This delightful and entertaining book would surely help to convert a few traditional moss-haters to the Chosen Way., Lays out practical information on some of the common mosses and nonmosses. . . . The book's high-quality photographs may inspire area gardeners to look again at these versatile, unobtrusive plants., The main problem that I have when I come upon a good book dealing with plants that I didn't know previously in detail, is that I am tempted to grow such plants. That's exactly what happened when I read this book on mosses, lichens, liverworts and other miniature plants., Moss Gardening is probably the most user-friendly resource out there for the home gardener . . . Almost 100 color photos will surely inspire any novice and experienced moss gardener., This, another of his classics, is for anyone who has contemplated making lemonade from lemons, or a moss garden from a failed, shady lawn., Lavishly illustrated with full color photos and entertainingly written-a beautifully designed quality hardcover typical of the outstanding books published by Timber Press., "The book's best feature is its stunning close-up photography. High-quality color photographs by the author and others lovingly bring these tiny plants into view. These modest plants are anything but humble when seen close-up. For those of us who see beautry in a moss carpet or a lichen-covered rock, here, finally, is a book worthy of a place on the gardening shelf." -Jim Bennett, Fine Gardening , January/February 1998, Schenk's style is highly informative yet deeply relaxing to read... Timber Press has created a beautiful glossy-paged book which truly enhances the writing and photographs., If you are struggling with moss in your lawn and trying to decide which way to go, grass or moss, read this book. It teaches you how to propagate, cultivate, and transplant mosses. Whether you're a botanist or amateur this book is a pleasurable and witty read., Moss Gardening by George Schenk will inspire you to change that damp strange corner of you garden/lawn frame nuisance to a small offbeat, but charming spot., The book's best feature is its stunning close-up photography. High-quality color photographs by the author and others lovingly bring these tiny plants into view. These modest plants are anything but humble when seen close-up. For those of us who see beautry in a moss carpet or a lichen-covered rock, here, finally, is a book worthy of a place on the gardening shelf., It is not often that a book comes along -- and in particular a gardening book-- that turns over contentedly underground attitudes and stimulates an about-face. ...Is not only heartfelt and witty but informative and well-written, I haven't wanted to miss much., Schenk has a gift of gab as great his gift of vision. He introduces his subjects enticingly, then starts to get technical......Indeed, there is much more here than any one of us would suspect possible. The photographs, too, are amazingly varied, considering they are all of moss......Schenk's book will open our eyes and instruct our fingers. His own dirt-stained hands are his offered proof of his right to write this book-and a most convincing one..., George Schenk's beautiful book is perhaps the first to cover the whole gamut of moss gardening. Moss Gardening is sure to become a classic, not only because it covers 'almost as much about the mechanics of moss gardening as the Kama Sutra does about dancing,' but also for the author's entertaining writing style.
