The illustrations are beautiful. It's not a reference or guidebook by any means--just a somewhat enhanced wall calendar. I was looking for a pretty, unique calendar for my wall, and I was delighted to find this one. I'm not a gardener, but I like reading the little tidbits about flora and fauna.
I returned the calendar and from now on will stick with the real thing and not waste my money. The planting info is so general that it too is useless. Considering the description of this calendar, I was expecting lots of good information like the Farmer's Almanac. I opened it and found nothing but illustrations (which are never as good as a picture of the real thing) and useless info like Ben Franklin's birthday.
Very pretty with cute little tidbits of gardening related info. I buy a bunch of people one every year.
I have been getting this calendar from Farmer's Almanac for years and each year it keeps me at my appointments along with giving me informative facts about the world of gardening.
I highly recommend it for any gardener in your life. She was bouncing out of her socks - the perfect present. I bought the Old Farmer's Almanac gardening calendar (and the OFA too). as a Christmas present to my sister who is a Master Gardener in Iowa.
