Customer Reviews

Really liked it

i borrowed the book from the library before purchasing to be sure I wanted to buy it for my daughter -- and find I want one for myself, too. Since I live near D.C., I particularly liked the advice about overwintering and what does well in which climate zone. It even gives advice about mini-vegetables in addition to the usual ideas about pots, what to put into them, planting, fertilizing, etc.
