Waking Up the Garden: Planting, Clearing, and Other Spring Tasks (Seasonal Garden Workbook) - Softcover

Spring is certainly the busiest time of year in the garden--new plants demand to be seeded or put into the fresh, spring earth, while old plants grow with renewed vigor and weeds and pests leap back into action after the dormancy of winter. This is the time of year when gardeners must jump into preparing the garden with great energy and enthusiasm to attain the desired pleasing results later in the year. Steven Bradley covers all the basics and a lot of ground in this workbook-like guide, including planting, propagation, pruning, lawn care, maintaining a small pond in the garden, rock gardens, climbing plants, and much more in this beautifully illustrated, step-by-step guide to waking up your own garden in spring. --Mark A.
