...Looks like my kinda book! Thanks for your review.<br />I have a love/hate relationship with Tetrapanax papyrifer - love the look of it, but find it very irritating to skin and eyes when I've maintained it in other people's gardens. Do you find that too?Horticatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-47149737077194633912023-01-16T13:26:10.640-08:002023-01-16T13:26:10.640-08:00Thanks for this great review.

The book's inclusion of xeric plants makes it more interesting to me. I remember a neighbor referring to my former tiny garden as a jungle and I accepted that characterization but I never think of my current garden that way, although I'd love to give an area or two that feeling.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.com
