“Fall is not the end of the gardening year; it is the start of next year's growing season. The mulch you lay down will protect your perennial plants during the winter and feed the soil as it decays, while the cleaned up flower bed will give you a huge head start on either planting seeds or setting out small plants.”
This book offers detailed insights into the various gardening activities that occur throughout the year, providing readers with practical advice and seasonal tips for maintaining a thriving garden. more
