1977 Sunset Western Garden Book

Good vintage condition. The back cover reads: “The Western Garden Book is the leading authority for gardening in Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. Here are 448 pages, most with illustrations. It's really three books in one-a how-to-do-it manual, a "Plant Selection Guide" for many landscape situations (green pages), and a 278-page "Western Plant Encyclopedia" describing over 5000 varieties. In addition, there are close-up climate maps that divide the West into 24 zones. The encyclopedia and "Plant Selection Guide" relate the suitability of each plant to the different zones so you can choose the best plants for your specific garden condition.”
