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.
