Gimme more.....

Another nice book with some good photos but expected a little more terms of variety of mosses reviewed. Certainly could have included more photos....


Very informative. Wonderful info for the novice as well as the veteran moss lover.

This is a wonderfully informative book. It is the kind of book that has material both for the person who knows nothing about moss gardening and the person who is a veteran moss enthusiast. If we were more into moss and less into lawns the environment would be more healthy. We wouldn't have to pump polluting weed killers and fertilizers into our precious ground water. There is nothing more beautiful than an area of velvety moss and this book tells you how to achieve it. I'll take moss over a lawn any day. If one is not ambitious to convert and entire lawn to moss, a little shady spot will do!

OCD: Moss

This is an excellent text for the "beginner to mid" moss apprentice. The photos are brilliantly gorgeous and add much excitement to the text. Schenk is clearly an enormous fan of moss as his pen scrolls simple, yet technical, information about moss throughout the text. The only qualm I have with this book is that Schenk keeps to the 2 major genus of moss. However, the photos, which might give the moss-lover ideas for a moss garden, pull the book into a text that is a must for the moss-"er."

I have a bit of an obsessive-compulsive disorder with moss. I collect it, use it to build moss sculptures, grow many different genus of it. 2 years ago, I fell in love with moss and the obsession hasn't stopped.

a little green magic book

Images in this book take you instantly into an green fairy tale. Carefuly chosen details speek for them self, in addition to it, text was writen with humor, and very professionaly, at the same time.


reviews: page 1, 2, 3



A delightful book that encourages gardeners to pay closer attention to the subtle beauty of miniature landscapes and introduces one of the glories of Japanese gardens into American designs. The author writes entertainingly of mosses on rocks and walls, in containers, and as a lush ground cover, and he presents a gallery of his favorite moss species.
