      So informative! Very thorough on topics and genus/species and I learned a lot from reading thru it. Good for beginners or further along in the hobby. My main reason for getting this book is for increasing my succulent knowledge regarding identifying by family and narrowing down. This helps give me more info in learning to do so and it is a quick read.

      This book is geared towards the avid enthusiast as opposed to me, who has a cactus and three succulents. The horticultural advice is more for people growing cacti and succulents for show and to have a greenhouse botanical garden, as opposed to a few houseplants. Howev...er, it is still a thorough resource of the different types of cacti and succulents, with plenty of full-color photos. My rating is based on how useful it was to me, but if I was a horticultural enthusiast, I'd probably give it a full 5 stars.
