Description:
As readers of her popular syndicated column know, Dora Galitzki seamlessly combines solid how-to information with wry observations on the gardener's life. Organized in an easy-to-use, question-and-answer format and illustrated with black-and-white drawings, this useful volume provides tips on familiar garden frustrations such as what to do when plants succumb to the ravages of pests, disease, and weather; the basics of selecting the best plants for a garden and keeping them healthy; and great ideas for growing unusual plants (like chicory for coffee or scented evening stock), creating a garden to attract butterflies, and much more.
