Roses Love Garlic: Companion Planting and Other Secrets of Flowersby Louise Riotte

26 of 28 people found the following review helpful: More about "Other Secrets" than "Companion Planting", October 18, 2001 Reviewer:prussianette "prussianette" (Grayslake, IL United States) - I was a bit disappointed in this book. There were some references as to what plants complement each other, and what ones are used to repel certain insects, but those references were too few and buried deep within certain textual descriptions of various plants. Many, if not most, plant references did not even have companion planting information. Then there were the chapters referring to cosmetics, fragrances, and skin care that better belonged in a health and beauty aid book. I will be looking for a different book to supply my needs on companion planting--but this time will preview the book at a bookstore or library so I know what I am getting.
