Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
Container gardening is becoming more and more popular with gardeners who have little space to garden. Window ledges, front and back steps, balconies, and rooftops can hold any number of containers. Fruit, vegetables, herbs, annuals and perennials, and even small shrubs and miniature trees can be grown in them. In addition to the usual containers, wheelbarrows, pots and pans, copper coal buckets, and old tires can be used. For each month, there are instructions and checklists for seasonal tasks, profiles of the plants in bloom, and practical projects, such as planning a balcony garden, making an alpine trough garden or a miniature water garden, and planting hanging baskets, window boxes, and wall pots. As any gardener knows, there is much more to be done in summer than in winter, but the month-by-month format will keep gardeners busy year-round. This practical guide, a selection of five book clubs, contains 60 color illustrations and 110 black-and-white illustrations. George Cohen --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
This guide presents container gardening in a logical seasonal progression through the year. The 12 chapters each provide an introduction to the month of the year, straightforward instructions and checklists for seasonal tasks, profiles of plants in bloom and a detailed practical project.

4.0 out of 5 stars Month to Month Container Gardening that Works!, June 1, 2000
This book is perfect for anyone who doesn't have the space to grow flowers or vegetables. I am not a green thumb, however, I found the instructions for growing plants in containers each month fairly easy to understand and follow. Thanks to Jackie Bennett I am now growing tomatoes for the first time from a container! I do have to mention that the book contains some terminology I am unfamiliar with, but then again, the book does not claim to be for beginners.
