Good book for gardeners in WA & OR but the organization of info doesn't facilitate quick referencing.

Gardening in Washington and Portland is more accurate
This book was a real disappointment. It is simplistic. For example, the Oregon portion only lists gardens in Portland, when there are numerous gardens all over the state and two of the most famous Iris gardens, and one huge Dalhia garden are in Oregon but are not mentioned. There is very little to be learned to assist one with a coastal garden, and both states have western coastal regions. This is a fine book for beginners but any gardener with a modicum of experience would be well advised to find some other publication.

very easy to understand
This book goes month to month and explain what you need to do from planting, insects, and care. It is so simple and clear. I can't wait to use it to help me plan my yard.

No Veggies???
I am very disappointed, the description was vague, but I thought that since the Texas edition had vegetable and herb gardening advice, I thought this edition would be similar. I really enjoyed the helpful advice in the Month by Month Gardening in Texas, so when I was moving to Washington, I ordered this title assuming it would have the same advice for vegetable gardening that the Texas book had. Not so. Not one thing about vegetable gardening. If you are looking for advice on vegetable and/or herb gardening in the Pacific Northwest, do not waste your money on this book.

Great reference book
Saw this book at the library and decided I had to have it for my personal library. It is a very useful book for those of us who live in the Pacific Northwest.

No vegetable garden section
Loved my month-by-month gardening in Texas book - so when I moved to Washington, this book was near the top of my list of things to buy. Unlike the Texas book however, this book doesn't have a section on vegetable gardening. Seems like a glaring omission to me.
