Garden book review

This book was given as a Christmas book to my daughter-in-law. I have a copy of the book myself and find it very helpful and informative. Since she and my son are building a house, I thought it would be helpful to them. The month by month format is wonderful to know when to do things with certain plants in the garden.

very helpful!

This book is the perfect tool for me, as I'm always wondering what I should be doing when to get the best results. It's unique in the way it's written and I don't believe it's meant to be your only resource for gardening information. It's very good at what it does and I actually like the way it's broken down, it works well for me.

Very helpful to Mid-Atlantic "newbie"

I just moved to Maryland from a quite different climate and was unsure how to deal with the changing seasons in this part of the country. It's very helpful to be able to look under a particular month and plant type and figure out what I'm supposed to be doing this time of year. Should I still be pruning my flowers? Is it okay to plant ANYTHING this time of year? What about preparing my garden for the winter? How do I deal with humid summers? My new home has a long-untended yard and garden, so I will pretty much be starting from scratch, and it's great to have some idea what can be planted, when it can be planted, and how to care for it.
