Summary: PLEASE - It's not Horticulturalist but HORTICULTURIST!
Comment: The "al" means "Like" - this lazy language is just about as sad as when people drop the "h" pronunciation in herbal ... does this mean that it would be correct to say that there are "eeerbacious" plants!
Rating: 4
Summary: Absolutely required for serious horticulturalists
Comment: This is a great reference book for serious horticulturalists. I have yet to run into a term I cannot find described well in this book. The drawings in the appendix are excellent as well.
Two criticisms:
1. print it on a lighter weight paper; there's no reason to choose such a heavy stock that adds to the shipping costs upon purchase and the chiropractic costs when you have to haul this around as I do to and from class each day.
2. Think of your US audience and include non-metric measurements. Less math on the fly is more!
