Useful information, even though it's all for the Northern Hemisphere. Frustrated by the "A to Z of Herbs", as one would expect the herbs to be listed in alphabetical order by the common name, which is used throughout the text, but no! Instead they are listed by the scientific name - a name most gardners are unlikely to know - so one has to look up the common name in the index to find out where the information on the herb is listed. Once you do find it, it is useful information though - definitely w0rth a look.
A good guide for everything to do with herbs. Containers, indoor/outdoor, ground cover, caring for, types, harvesting, preserving methods, usage, ... Anything and everything herb related lol.
