1.Desert GardeningDesert Gardening
from Da Capo Press
Price: $15.30

Customer Review:
Everything else I've read on desert garneding is junk. George actually lived here. He actually answered the phone at the extension service, etc. I've grown stuff I never would have tried. When something dies unexpectedly, I usually find out what I should have done in this book. Buy it first.

However, the organizational style is not intuitive at all, and it's seldom worth the effort for me to try to locate the information I need. Rather than organizing tasks by month, they're organized by plant type and... more info

9.Gardening in the Desert: A Guide to Plant Selection and CareGardening in the Desert: A Guide to Plant Selection and Care
from University of Arizona Press
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:
Great info for the desert gardener, but if you want to know what the plants and cacti actually look like, the small black and white pictures just don't cut it. Gardening is a visual discipline, pictures do speak a thousand words.
