Practical Gardening Book,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Rodale's Illustrated Encyclopedia of Gardening and Landscaping Techniques (Paperback)
I have used this book for gardening references many times.
I got tired of borrowing it from library and decided it was time to get my own copy. I have used it to solve landscaping problems as well as planting information. You can't beat the Rodale name for great gardening information. There a lots of "cute" gardening books in my library with pretty pictures, but this one gets used the most.I even copy gardening home remedies in it so that I don't have to look them up elsewhere.
