This is the book to get on gardening for hummingbirds and butterflies. It has a lot of information on the lifecycle, behavior, and needs of hummingbirds and butterflies, plus a comprehensive reference with illustrations and information on each species. There are some good plant lists organized by various sites and formats, though I would have liked a "master list" for easy reference and better comparisons between plants. A good step above all the other books on the subject that I read. This is the one I'd reach for first every time.
Lots of colorful pictures of butterflies, hummingbirds and flowers.
There are charts of garden designs, plants, trees, shrubs and chapters on the species of hummingbirds and butterflies.
Interesting for anyone who enjoys gardening and the creatures it brings.
