My Review~

This book was like it was made for me. As no matter what I do I can not grow anything! But with this book,it looks like I can finally start having beautiful flowers and even a garden.I can even start them in a container before I transfer outside. The book tells me what plants are the best and where to plant them. It takes you through step by step so even a "Dummy" like me can grow things now! I know that it is too late this year to start a garden,the weather has not been good at all here in the Midwest. But I am ready next year as I have this book on my bookshelf and will be having one of the most beautiful yards around!
