Rating: 5 / 5
For not knowing anything about herbs and growing them, I praise this book. Easy to find information. Covers a vast number of herbs, edible and non edible. Has info about how to use the herbs for cooking. How to grow them and where. My basil is three feet tall and bushy. It has been very helpful and my herb garden thanks you.

This was one of my first herb books, and it really gave such great instructions, I had a great experience and plan to double my fun this year. When I picked this book I knew NOTHING about gardening. I succussfully grew:
-Rosemary
-Lemon Balm
-Sage
-3 types of Basil
-3 types of mint
-orageno
-thyme
-chamomile
-lavender (had some trouble but it’s coming back great this year!)
I’ve read more about herbs now, but this book is still used all the time. If you could get only one, get this, you won’t be sorry!!!
I give it an A+
