Caring
for Perennials : What to Do and When to Do It
Janet MacUnovich, Steven Nikkila (Photographer)
I am a lousy gardener. What I know about gardening could be summarized
in a few words: "Plant something and hope for the best." Yet, I love to
garden, and keep trying year after year in my tiny flowerbeds around the
street trees in a sea of concrete here in San Francisco. I don't even bother
to attempt planting annuals or growing things from seed, but for years
I've been experimenting with perennials to see if I can find something
that will survive for more than one year out there in the urban jungle.
If I'd had this book years ago, I might have been successful a long time
ago. For me, it's a walking tour of everything I have done wrong. For you,
it can be a guidebook to doing things right from the get-go! Amazon.com
