Reviews
This book is for the knowledgeable and for those unfamiliar but interested in learning about and possibly growing bamboo., Be warned: Meredith's bamboo world is so appealing that you might refuse to come back to the mundane landscapes of "ordinary"--that is, non-bamboo--plants. . . . We expect a renaissance in bamboo utilization, due entirely to this book., This leading handbook in this specialized gardening subject has a catalog of innumerable kinds of bamboo with color photos, descriptions, and points of interest., Surely the best all-around and certainly the most up-to-date treatment of these curious grasses. . . . Both a good introduction and a worthy guide., Easy-to-read chapters cover bamboo's origin and history, structure and form, cultivation and propogation, landscape uses and maintenance, and taxonomy. . . . The author sets the record straight on this much-maligned plant. The book is a reference of value., Meredith's approach perfectly suits this objective, with engaging personal experience illuminating comprehensive coverage of the subject at hand. The book's attractive format opens the door to the usefulness and beauty of bamboos, presenting a vast range of possibilities to enhance a garden or landscape.Meredith's fine resource offers clarity and enlightenment to new and experienced gardeners alike., This is a landmark, in that a book on growing bamboo for Americans by an American has finally been written. I would not be without Bamboo for Gardens, and would recommend it to both the newcomer and expert alike - it is a required read., Bamboo for Gardens is a full treatise on bamboos and falls into the category of "reference book" for gardeners-the kind of book Timber Press does so well., Another winner from the folks at Timber Press. THE definitive guide to growing bamboo in American gardens, and worth every penny., Because it is written in an engaging style by a fellow gardener (not a scientist), I found myself reading with relish sections which I realized later were quite technical. This book is a must-have. I was shocked to hear the price was so reasonable. I am personally recommending it to everyone I know., All interested in Bamboo should obtain this book. There is certain to be surprises in store for you. . . . It is quite simply a very good book., A comprehensive look at the largest and most spectacular member of the grass family...Offering the gardener or landscaper a broad and user-friendly introduction...Illustrated with beautiful color photography., From ground covers to timber types, Ted Jordan Meredith, author of Bamboo for Gardens, knows his subject., This book is sure to expand your horizons as a gardener. If you live where bamboos are perennial grasses, you should have this book on your shelves., "Really want to know about bamboo? This is the book to get."-John Van de Water, Newark Star-Ledger, April 7, 2002, Mr. Meredith deals with all of these issues in a way that will appeal both to the practical gardener and to the academically trained botanist., Sufficient documentation and relevant consultation with specialists in these grasses give extra value to this publication.

Synopsis
Whatever your climate, there is a suitable species of bamboo for your garden. More than 300 bamboos are described, from tropical and subtropical species to hardy species with information on size, native range, and landscape use., Bamboos evoke an exotic atmosphere wherever they are used -- unfortunately, they are too often kept out of our gardens for fear of their invasive qualities or lack of hardiness. In truth, these elegant grasses, encompassing both woody and herbaceous forms, can achieve dramatic yet restrained effects in a range of climates. Their uses include both the ornamental, offering striking foliage and culms, and the practical, such as for screening or erosion control, not to mention the culinary treat of bamboo shoots and the structural qualities of the culm wood. Tropical and subtropical bamboos present many possibilities for landscapes in warmer climates, while the hardier species can be grown as far north as Minnesota in the United States and in the cooler climes of England and continental Europe. Bamboo culture has a long and distinguished legacy in East Asia, but much remains to be explored by Western gardeners and landscapers. Bamboo expert Ted Jordan Meredith provides a thorough and multifaceted treatment of these ancient grasses, covering origins and history, structure and form, cultivation and propagation, landscaping, and taxonomy and identification. He offers insight into selecting the right plant for the right situation, and presents useful advice on the best methods for containing or eradicating potentially invasive forms. The bulk of the book is an encyclopedia of bamboo genera, species, and cultivars. More than 300 bamboos from 40 different genera are described in detail, including information on size, lighting and temperature requirements, native range, physical characteristics, and landscape and other uses. Meredith's excellent color photos and clear line drawings effectively illustrate both the details and broader effects of these exquisite plants.
