And it will., " Hydrangeas for American Gardens totally seduced me. It is attractive enough to pick up, deep enough to take home, enthralling enough to take to bed, and by the morning light I wanted it to be mine forever." -R. William Thomas, American Gardener , September/October 2004, This man is a scientist and everything that he says is backed up by experience. And, of course, the pictures are lovely., For those who wish to extend their collection of hydrangeas and which plants to grow, this book is undeniably essential., A must-read that covers every aspect of the plant from its botany to its propagation and hybridization (and even how to preserve those blossoms)., For growers of hydrangeas Dirr's book is invaluable for choosing the best hydrangeas to grow in each area., For Dirr fans, there is no question that this book is a must-read.

This book is a must for Dirr fans, and for those not yet exposed to his writing and photography, now is the time., Hydrangeas for American Gardeners is the ultimate reference.

Dirr comes to the rescue in this refreshingly forthright and practical guide to these distinctive shrubs and climbers., It is quite simply a great book! The hydrangeas of the world will thank the author, as you will as well., Gardeners will find useful advice about which varieties will perform best in their part of the United States.
