Book
The new gardener's handbook : everything you need to know to grow a beautiful & bountiful garden / Daryl Beyers.
From one of the experts at the New York Botanical Garden, this guide shares the science of good gardening in a design-forward, beginner-friendly way that will appeal to new gardeners everywhere.
No one was born a gardener, but everyone was born to garden. Beyers has created an easy-to-follow, visually instructive handbook that teaches not only the hows, but also the whys-- the proven science-- of what goes into a thriving garden. Whether you're seeking to grow your own food or fill your life with flowers, you'll learn about soil, plant selection, propagation, planting and mulching, watering and feeding, pruning, and weeds, pests, and diseases. -- adapted from back cover
