Gardening in Illinois

Author is very informed and this book is very helpful in helping me to create a garden. M. S.

Perfect regional specific gardening guide

So many gardening guides try and address the entire country in a one size fits all attempt to sell more books. These are typically limited in truely helpful information on your specific region. This book is great for Illinois gardeners and home owners in general. I love the month by month format so I can keep track of what I should be doing each month in my lawn and garden. The only thing I'd change is combining all the sections so everything for one month was together, the book has sections like garden, trees, lawn, etc and each section has it's own monthly pages.

An excellent resource for gardeners in Illinois

This book presents month-by-month plans for growing your garden in Illinois. It gives tips on such activities as planting, pruning, fertilizing, and so much more. The plans are organized into categories, including annuals, bulbs, herbs, vegetables, houseplants, lawns, perennials, roses, shrubs and trees. I love this book, and recommend it wholeheartedly!

Most useful gardening book ever!

This is a book for both novices and experts. It is the most useful of the many gardening books that I own, and the one I go back to over and again.
