5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Gardening Book, May 2 2004

This review is from: Month-By-Month Gardening in the South: What to Do and When to Do It (Paperback)

I have a small collection of general audience books, and I was looking for one tailored to my neck of the woods. I have only owned a home for two years, so keeping up a yard was new to me. I had gardened in the past at my parent's but never been in charge of it all (lawn, trees, shrubs, mulch, flowers, etc.). This book makes it all seem so easy! My yard is looking better in the six months I've been reading this book, and I have no doubt that it will be spectacular next spring thanks to the Hastings' wise book layout!

Yes, it's a good schedule. However, the writing is kind of folksy. I tire of his personal examples; doesn't he know anyone else who gardens? More illustrations or photographs would help, too. Overall, it's a good book, but certainly not a comprehensive guide to gardening.

This review is from: Month-By-Month Gardening in the South: What to Do and When to Do It (Paperback)

This is EXACTLY the book I've needed for years and didn't know about! I'm so glad to have found it. Now I know exactly when to do all my gardening tasks and HOW to do them! This book includes great month by month instructions on what a Southern gardener should be doing. It also includes fabulous instructions on how to do many tasks [like pruning!] that I really had no good idea how to do correctly.

I love gardening and I'm so happy to have this book - I'm finding it exceptionally useful! This book is money well spent!

5.0 out of 5 stars You'll use this book constantly. Not just for Georgians!
I own an embarrassingly large number of gardening books, some of them quite wonderful. But this one has quickly become my favorite, for many reasons. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't Need to Be a Plant Expert!
Although I very much enjoy books that simply educate me about certain plants, I am not able to remember all I need to know in a regular, timely fashion. Read more
