From Booklist
Although some time and hard work are always required to create and maintain a garden, this book offers techniques that reduce the task of cultivation. Woodier begins with "workable weekend" gardens, offering advice on designing gardens and preparing raised flower beds (with instructions on building raised beds). There's information on choosing easy-care plants, ground cover, bulbs, and shrubs and on creating specific gardens, such as vegetable, herb, woodland and shade, fern and foliage, and cottage. A chapter on gardening basics gives information on soil testing, fertilizers, compost, watering, mulching, and pest and disease control. Also included are 52 weekend projects, which include making a window box; starting seeds indoors; building trellises, arbors, and scarecrows; and drying and freezing herbs. George Cohen
