Some gardening books are annuals and some are hardy perennials. Here is a one-of-a-kind book of the latter sort, an entertaining mix of facts, advice, reminiscence, and humor for gardeners to dip into year after year - especially in winter, when they can't dig into the ground. With tips, facts, and forecasts - from how to talk green to a guide to astrological gardening - this is a browser's delight and a keepsake for every gardener. An original Mariner paperback
