Leave a Review Armitage’s Great Garden Plants
Armitage's greatest perennial
After reading one page, "Rules for Gardening", that said absolutely nothing of use I could not then get back to the home page, Judy kept getting promotion page for the App developer Sutro Media. Deleted immediately. Complete waste of £3.99
JohnIntresting app needs better design!
I really liked the app but it is hard to find your away around and the design is a little rough.Extension agent
Good app that is updated often!Good quick reference
Just like all Armitage books this is excellentSave your money
This is the first I have bought written by Dr. Armitage. I was disappointed. I won't go out of my way looking for his books after seeing this. It does have beautiful pictures. I really wanted more about the plants than that and u tube videos.Excellent Resource
I will be recommending this App to my garden center customers, as well using it myself. Very useful gardening information from one of the industries leading experts.Plant categories
Love the way he groups plant info into shade and sun tolerant, as well as gives info on deer tolerant plants.Should listened to the bad reviews
Great Idea...Lousy Execution
Unless you NEVER want to look for plants in any other area than where you are at, then this App is not the App for you as you can not select a location by dropping a pin on the map page and have the results filtered by pin location instead of user location. Sure, you could select the zones 3-4 selection, but then that negates the purpose of the map page doesn't it?Show lessThanks!
Thanks for this app. I have enjoyed viewing it. Good work.Not For Professionals
Like Dr. Michael Dirr, Dr. Armitage is widely respected among professional horticulturists, landscape architects, and serious amateurs. Both may be tired of the constant comparisons, but that's the reality. If you own the Michael Dirr app ($14.99 and worth twice that), do not expect this app to be similar in any way. While the Dirr app is essentially his complete tome on woody ornamentals (with lots of color pictures!) in a handy little searchable database app, this app is like a Ladies Home Journal spring gardening issue. It's great for sparking some ideas with good photography. Period. It contains a very small personal selection of the author's favorites that seems obsessed with deer resistance. Only barebones information is included on the limited species. For those that buy their plants only at Lowes/Home Depot on weekends in May, this would be a great app if it sold for $.99. Professionals and serious amateurs will be sorely disappointed by this app for $4.99 with Dr. Armitage's name on it.Show less
