I thoroughly enjoyed this little book. It's full of gardening tips, some I knew, some I forgot, some I never heard of. Growing up we had a large yard with a beautiful thriving garden. Now living in a smaller space makes having a "real" garden not possible, but I can still have a container garden. I've had them in apartments before with great results. Trying to get back into it after moving I got this book and am all jazzed up ready to head off to the nursery to get some seeds and my balcony garden going. I've alwyas preferred growing things from seeds, and was happy she had a section on that. Some books seem to think you can only grow vegetables from nursery-purchased shoots. I've always grown things from seeds though. Somehow I feel more accomplishment at it. :)I'll definitly start with her Top 10 List of Easiest Vegetables to Grow. Ten is already more than I have room for, but I've grown some of them before with good results so will start there.Overall a great little book and a good starter for anyone who is new to container gardening. Highly recommended.
