Remarkably complete, this is the one: the indispensable
one-volume reference guide to gardening simply, beautifully
and well. It is jam-packed with useful information,
old-fashioned common sense, and a lifetime's worth of
experience, and is thoroughly revised and expanded to be 100
percent organic in its recommendations. Updated with the
latest on plants, soils, techniques, and tools, it includes:
The basics of landscaping, emphasizing sustainable methods.
Understanding what plants need and avoiding complex rules
and formulas. How to choose and combine flowers for
season-long color, orchestrating with perennials and
accenting with annuals. Extending the season - that's right,
harvest carrots in January. The secret to raising roses
without fuss, less demanding lawns, vines with discipline,
and trees that will enhance your property. There is new
information on native species, and all the gardening
resources you need—explained in a voice that "has the snap
of a good snowpea and the spice of an old rose"
