Review
A truly inspiring book. National Gardener, October 2002 (National Gardener )

The information is encyclopedic, and the illustrations superb. John Van de Water, Newark Star-Ledger, November 5, 2000 (Newark Star-Ledger )

Beginning or fully-matured rock gardeners can benefit here. More than 1,300 plants are mentioned along with 1,350 color photos. Dale Langford, Rocky Mountain News, October 3, 2000 (Denver Rocky Mountain News )

Patricia A. Taylor, The Trenton Times, 2/27/ 2000
Lust over Baldassare Mineos Rock Garden Plants slowly, because there are nearly 1400 fascinating, little known plants described and illustrated in this book. It is impossible to appreciate them all in just a few readings.

John E. Bryan, Gardening Newsletter, March 2000
For all interested in small but beautiful plants, this book will prove invaluable. The text abounds with snippets of interest.
