I am the original 'black thumb'...of the few attempts I have made to grow a garden, none have ended well. I am, however, a persistent person and when I started to become aware of this whole container gardening concept a few months back, I thought, perhaps this is a way for me to start small and have more success.I have since read a number of books on the subject and, while they have been an interesting introduction to container gardening, they have not really inspired me to have a go. Having read this book I feel that I am now armed with the information to get started...this container gardening guide I can work with!The author spells everything out in an extremely well written, and easy to understand, way. She breaks things down into tasks to be done each month, such as ordering your seeds for upcoming seasons, planting and fertilizing guidelines for the various flowers that are featured for that month, when to plant your fruit and vegetable seeds, potting, pruning, checking and replacing containers, propagating and laying techniques and so much more!Thankyou to the author for sharing your many years of experience and journaling of your activities so that newbies, like myself, may be able to make this work and enjoy this hobby! Here I go, wish me luck!
