    "The photographs, especially of typical habitats and the form of plants as you would see them in the ‘bush’ and the tabulated identification data also add considerably to the usefulness of this book in bringing a fascinating area of the Australian flora to the attention of many more people. Highly recommended." -- Tony Cavanagh * Growing Australian #255 * "I can recommend Plants of Subtropical Eastern Australia as it will greatly add to the armamentarium for botanists, both amateur, professional and those in between, in the eternal quest to identify all the different flora that populate this prolific bioregion." -- Colleen Watts * Australian Association of Bush Regenerators News No. 147 *
