Let the gardens grow
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Sometimes you need to let go and allow the garden to become. I like McClure's ideas of getting away from row gardening and instead focusing on less fussy beds, for instance using self-sowing plants. I also recommend this author's other book, The Herb Gardener. It's a good manual for those wishing to explore herbs. -Linda Fry Kenzle, author of Gathering
