Editorial Reviews
Review
Jack Ruttle National Gardener : A thorough reference.
Beverly Fitts Hardy Plant : "[A book] that I refer to often and find very useful... Excellent chapters on companion plants and design principles.
Marianne Binetti Seattle Post-Intelligencer : Serious collectors and hosta breeders, along with homeowners who just want it made in the shade, will devour this hosta encyclopedia in the quest for the perfect color of this almost perfect perennial.

Book Description
Paul Aden, who has introduced dozens of new hostas into cultivation, wrote six chapters and contributed many photographs to this classic. Other contributors include John Elsley, Yoshimichi Hirose, Graham Stuart Thomas, and André Viette. This was the first contemporary book on hostas and played a role in helping to bring these versatile shade-lovers to their current level of popularity.
