Very practical and fun projects for the garden!

This workbook is filled with beautiful pictures of container arrangements with step-by-step instructions for each. First, it has a full-page picture of the arrangement. On the opposite page, it'll describe the types of flowers used. Then there is a fold-out page with very clear diagrams and instructions on how to make the container itself (if you don't wanna buy one. Pretty easy stuff like paint and simply woodwork); and then how to arrange the plants inside.I have several other garden books, including another container garden book, but this is much more "fun"! It's a great idea book even if you don't want to follow the instructions 100%. It shows huge arrangements (for small trees), as well as small ones (with pots of pansies). I'm getting more of these workbooks!
