Easy Gardening

Many gardeners — especially novices — are burdened by questions of what to plant where. Which plants will look good with each other? How to ensure that plants will be attractive for more than a few weeks of the year? And what to plant in a difficult spot? Easy Gardening completely removes the pressure of making such decisions, showing readers how successful planting can be easy with the use of simple planting suggestions for a variety of garden situations. The authors recommend perfect plants for different places, from a hot, sunny, south-facing corner to a dry, dark, shady area. For each situation the planting is presented as a recipe, with a list of which plants are needed and how many of each to order. Color photographs illustrate the individual plants, and a planting plan shows the layout of the garden and the positioning of the plants.
