Product Description
Disney landscapers are artists who use flowers as their paint and foliage as their clay to transport guests to different lands and different times. Disney's landscape artists know the right plants to create rugged, genteel, even spooky settings-often just yards apart. For the first time ever, the master gardeners of Disney will offer home gardeners their tips for creating impressive landscapes. Secrets of Disney's Glorious Gardens will be the perfect memento for garden lovers and a stunning source of inspiration and appreciation.

2 out of 5 stars Secrets?   July 24, 2008
I thought I'd be getting some wonderful back-lot adventure and instead it's just a bunch of nice pictures and garden tips. Why is there DIY project instructions for building a garden arbor? I can get that from the magazine rack at Home Depot. Why is there a topic on the temperature zones of the United States? I bought this book because I was interested in Disney, not my backyard. There are a few good tidbits of what goes on behind the scenes but nowhere near what I was hoping for.

I have thoroughly the book Secrets of Disney's Glorious Gardens. The pictures are gorgeous and the text is very informative. It is a great book.

But, I wanted to know more about specifics that take place in the Disney's horticultural arena. Also, why talk about the oldest specimen on property (a yucca in the Mexico pavilion over 250 years old) and then not have a photograph. I am a serious gardener and an avid Disney fan. As an annual passholder I travel down to Walt Disney World 4-6 times a year. As much for their gardens as anything else. I was really hoping for more in depth knowledge of horticulture at Disney. A lot of information in the book is very basic. If you love Disney and love plants then I would still recommend this book for your collection. Just be prepared that you are not going to receive the "inside look" that I anticipated.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome Photography   February 17, 2007
As a Disney-holic I can never get enough information on DisneyWorld. This book is beautifully laid out with awesome pictures and great information, even for someone like me who "kills" silk! Great book!


4 out of 5 stars You must have a garden or half of the fun is lost   January 3, 2007
This is quite a nice book to have, but it's not a must-have unless you are fond on gardening and/or would love to have or have a garden. Pics are very nice, but if you're looking for new pictures with unusual points of view, you may find yourself a little disappointed.
