Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The original issue of Month By Month doesn't have the glossy pages, color photo's or planting zone maps of the new Revised Version but I am glad I bought the Original Version. It may not be available much longer.
Only the new Revised version is now available locally in retail book and home improvement stores but reading the descriptions I notices the Original version is slightly bigger and has 80 more pages.
After receiving the Original version in the mail I compared the two versions. The text is nearly identical but spread out with more white space and indexing in the Original version. All in all the original version seems easier to read with matte pages and spread format.
The Revised version has removed the chapter on houseplants, combined warm season and cool season grasses into one chapter and removed plant information tables for individual varieties for each chapter. These tables are for annuals, perennials, roses, bulbs, vegetables, houseplants,lawn grasses, shrubs, trees, vines, ground covers and aquatic plants. They contain much useful information such as common and botanical names, planting times, hardiness zones, light requirements, bloom season and relevant comments. Although the variety lists are limited they cover the most common plants and are a good general reference.
