Reviews
"This accessible guide is worth a look for new gardeners with a penchant for color."—Publishers Weekly
“Gardeners using this engaging gardening guide will feel that they are chatting in the most personal and inviting way with a knowledgeable, friendly expert with extensive real-world experience. This is the kind of how-to book gardeners want to curl up with to feel inspired to visualize exactly how to create the garden beds or containers of their dreams. Southern gardeners especially need all the help they can get because of the region’s unique climate challenges.”—Barbara Sullivan, author of Garden Perennials for the Coastal South
“This book will help all gardeners—from young people just starting out to pretty much anyone who enjoys DIY television shows—create more beautiful plantings. Often, people give up on gardening because the plants they have selected and placed do not look as they had hoped. Roxann Ward’s step-by-step system will allow almost anyone to have a beautiful garden.”—Barbara Fair, associate professor of horticultural science, North Carolina State University
