Good book for new gardeners

I haven't read book through yet. It is a great reference to use for all gardening issues from growing to bugs.

A True Garden Essential

I'm ordering a copy to give as a gift right now, but I have owned my own copy for at least six or seven years now. I've found this book to be an essential for me. I picked up a few different books at the book store the other day while searching for a gift. They all had simular titles reference "Ohio Gardening," but none were quite at the same level as this book. I also should add that I haven't been able to find this same book in a book store lately. There are lots of great charts to reference earch year when planting time comes around. This book covers everything from vegetables, to fruits/nuts, to flowers, to lawns, and even trees. It covers storage of fruits and vegetables, building your soil up, insect and pest control, and on and on. Very handy reference!
