Review Quote

“Planting succulents in containers opens the way for a hobby within a hobby.”

“Seeing how gardeners turned birdbaths and tiered water fountains into flowing arrangements of sedum, aeonium, echeveria and crassula struck me as the perfect comeback to those who say succulents are boring.”

"Succulent Container Gardens lives up to all of my hopes and expectations for the book. ...if you're thinking that 2010 will be the year you give succulents a try, this book will help you create a unique and beautiful pot or two or ten. Not to mention give you enough information to keep your new plants alive for many years to come."

"There is plenty to inspire here, with lots of lovely photographs of plants spilling out of all manner of pots; and Baldwin’s extensive information…has the hallmark of personal experience."

"Baldwin will surely ignite a fire under green thumbs who are already drawn to this realm of intriguingly textural plants. ... Regardless of skill level, gardeners will draw on Baldwin's expert propagation advice for a cost-cutting way to expand one's garden."

"The information is presented clearly and simply and would be great for a novice but still in depth enough for a semi-seasoned succulent-er."

"As I paged through this book for the first time, I think I shouted some obscene expression of admiration every few pages."


“I strongly suggest that you add a copy to the shopping list for yourself. You’ll be reading it for years.”

“A pleasure for the eye and filled with ideas and useful information."
