[.ca] Gardener's Guide to Growing Daylilies (ISBN 0881925365)

Lacks Much Depth: An Introductory Review:
I've read Munson's and Hill's books on daylilies and they are better for cultivating daylilies or provide a more in depth study. Grenfell's book is informative but not sufficiently detailed if the reader wants to cross cultivate or try to developing a cultivar. Better information is available on the internet websites.

Good reference book:
This is a good reference book. Helpful information. More photos would have meant 5 stars from me - I love the pictures in daylily books.

Authoritative, easily understood introduction to daylilies:
Diana Grenfell's guide to growing daylilies covers daylilies from 551-479 BC to the present. She clearly presents a broad view of this beloved perennial, with excellent insight. From cultivating to breeding, terminology to forms, colors and cultivar recommendations, this book is as good as there is on the subject of daylilies.
