Gardening: Plains and Upper Midwest [Paperback]

Roger Vick (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Gardeners in the Plains and upper Midwest will welcome this handbook on gardening in the northern United States. Canadian horticulturist Vick provides all the right stuff--basic gardening information for the beginner from landscape planning to specific growing information for trees, shrubs, flowers, and vegetables. A chapter on meadow gardening along with a list of suitable meadow plants is a welcome addition. Recommended for purchase by libraries in the Plains and Midwest and for comprehensive collections elsewhere.

This review is from: Gardening: Plains and Upper Midwest (Paperback)

We have such extremes of climate in the Midwest that it can be frustrating knowing what to grow. This book not only recommends varieties but also covers pests and diseases we face in our areas.
