It's no wonder Jerry Baker is a great gardener. He probably wears the weeds out. Baker, who bills himself as America's Master Gardener, is a frenetic talker with abundant energy, the kind of dynamo you can imagine digging a flower bed and deadheading the geraniums before breakfast. Yet he has this unflagging conviction that it's all so simple, that all of us can have emerald lawns, lush perennials and four-pound tomatoes with a little effort and some stuff from under the kitchen sink. First it was early dandelions in the February thaws, now it is March roaring in like a lion of a very different sort.
Every few days seems to bring new extremes.
