• The Frosting on the Cake.....
  This is the gardening magazine I reach for first. Call me shallow, but I like pictures that get my heart racing, send my mind looking for things I can do in my own garden, and make me see things in a different way. For the "how to" I might turn to other sources, but this is the one that gets me going the minute I see the gorgeous cover.
• Artsy, inspiring, great source for ideas and trends
  I've been a subscriber for 4 years, it was given at first as a gift ( nice idea, that).
  NOT a how -to.
  Not even educational about plant specifics, as Horticulture Mag. is.

• Gardening as a Lifestyle
  I have subscribed to Garden Design for some time, and have given it as Christmas presents. As someone else noted, the cover is seductive, and I think that is how I got hooked years ago.

• Pros and Cons
  Pros: It is beautiful to look at. The feel of it is nice and the photography is top notch. It showcases innovative design & people in the industry.

  Cons: Not very practical in terms of instruction. It's good for getting ideas but there isn't much instruction on how the garden shown got to that point. It has a lot of product reviews that are, for the most part, for very expensive products.

  I don't look forward to reading it as much as say "Fine Gardening" which I read cover to cover.
