With more than 180,000 copies sold since its original publication, The Well-Tended Perennial Garden has proven itself to be one of the most useful tools a gardener can have. Now, in this expanded edition, there's even more to learn from and enjoy.

This is the first, and still the most thorough, book to detail essential practices of perennial care such as deadheading, pinching, cutting back, thinning, disbudding, and deadleafing, all of which are thoroughly explained and illustrated. More than 200 new color photographs have been added to this revised edition, showing perennials in various border situations and providing images for each of the entries in the A-to-Z encyclopedia of important perennial species. In addition, there is a new 32-page journal section, in which you can enter details, notes, and observations about the requirements and performance of perennials in your own garden.

Thousands of readers have commented that The Well-Tended Perennial Garden is one of the most useful and frequently consulted books in their gardening libraries. This new, expanded edition promises to be an even more effective ally in your quest to create a beautiful, healthy, well-maintained perennial garden.

(review for original edition; still applies -->) Fantastic! HUGE help in the flower garden. I don't usually like to mark up books, but I have heavily marked this one and refer to it constantly.

As for the 2017 edition specifically: The first half of the book is essentially unchanged; I was surprised to still see such frequent references to Sedum "Autumn Joy" specifically, as if no other sedums exist, and that seemed to date the book to me. But she may have felt that no changes were necessary to that content.

As for the "plant encyclopedia" section, it is now well-illustrated with photos, which is very nice. More importantly, additional perennials have been added; a few have dropped out (variegated bishop's weed didn't make the grade this time!) Within each entry, most often there have been few or no changes, but sometimes newer varieties are suggested.

If you have one of the two earlier editions of the book, I'd say this updated version is not a must-have, but neither did the author simply slap a new cover on the old book, change the photos, and call it brand new. My advice, if you think you might be interested, would be to look at this book locally so you can examine it for yourself and see if the differences merit the purchase or not. ( )

An excellent source for how to maintain your perennials.

One of my favorite go-to books for gardening questions. Read it in the off-season the first time. Add sticky notes to those pages you'll want to look at again during the growing season. It's an attractive book with practial, detailed information. ( )
