    Good Points: Easty to navigate, thousands of beautiful photographs, in-depth plant care and great for plant identification


    Bad Points: None


    General comments: I've upgraded to the latest 3,500 plant 9,000 photograph version and wanted to say it's even better as it's got an additional plants and images but sadly it's not listed on this review Centre and it should as it's brilliant.
    The notes and plant lists that I'd made with my original CD are still available with my upgraded CD as they are stored on my computer hard drive.
    A great product

    This Complete Gardens Ltd Complete Gardens Plant Finder, Plant Care CD-ROM is very easy to use and nicely designed. It has thousands of stunning photographs so that you can identify the plants through the seasons. It's great being able to add plants to the calendar so you can see which plants are flowering in any given month and also to see which of my plants need pruning in any chosen month.
    I can add and print my notes. Very useful.

    I bought this CD for my wife after seeing it in a National Paper. It really is so easy to use. There is so much information on it. We are now able to plan our garden for next year with confidence that we will have year-round colour and also how to prepare for pruning, dealing with bugs & diseases. The photography also makes it a nice product just to browse through. This must be the best available.

    I have recently acquired VIII of the Complete Gardens CD after having had VI & VII both of these were excellent but VIII is even better if that is possible. The layout & links are the same which are just about right as they take you to everything you need including sites to buy the plants from & the CD's own website which is well worth a visit, but as a plant finder you won't find better. There are about 2500 plants on this CD, some with 5 or 6 pictures per plant all easy to find. For example ...

    I have recently purchased this program to assist with my own garden, as well as my fledgling Horticuture business.
    I find that it has the right level of information for both amateur and professional markets, which is well laid out and easy to learn to use.
    It has plenty of useful features, such as being able to create a calender for activities and notes on plants you want to purchase.
    I understand a professional edition is in the pipeline, but I would unreservedly recommend this to any keen ...

    I bought this CD at a Flower Show and am really pleased with it.
    I had a demonstration when I bought it but didn't think I would find it that easy when I got home but I did!! I have found plants for different parts of my garden and made a list of 'plants I want' and printed them out so I can take it next time I go to the garden centre and they can't 'fobb' me off with something else.
    I think the Photography is outstanding and the information very interesting and easy to understand.
    I love the ...

    We recently bought a copy of 'Complete Gardens' and are absolutely delighted with it. It is an excellent resource with all the information for planting, growing and caring for plants gathered together in one place. There are excellent photos and diagrams of the plants. It has the added benefit of being able to section off your own plants into a 'plants I have list', where you are able to see month by month which plants will be in flower etc, as well as telling you what needs to be done in the ...
