4.0 out of 5 stars
Delightful, but tails off at the end.,
By Stephen M. Bainbridge "www.professorbainbridg... (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Tottering In My Garden: A Gardener's Memoir (Paperback)
A slight but enjoyable memoir of a Toronto country gardener. The beginning is heavy going as she takes us on a tour of her first 5 houses, and it tails off a bit at the end. But it is a diverting couple of evening's read nonetheless.

Tottering in my garden,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tottering In My Garden: A Gardener's Memoir (Paperback)
This is an easy and fun read. I found it to be helpful in the basics such as the transplanting of plants. The discussion of various soils is very enlightening as I have a garden at the beach and of course, where I live. However, would I dig four feet holes or haul in manure by hand to enrich my garden? I don't think so-I believe in gardening the "lazy" way. But, I do think this is good information to have at hand.

A wonderful gardening book full of information and humor.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tottering In My Garden: A Gardener's Memoir (Paperback)
Midge chronicles her gardening experience from city gardens in her early married years to the retirement home on a large property in the country where she and her husband create a garden from scratch. Her knowledge of gardening is gained by making mistakes and learning from them. Some of her experiences are hilarious and every gardener can learn from her mishaps and successes.
