Container Gardening for Dummies by Bill Marken

pacifickle's review

3.0

This book was pretty standard for what I expected. I needed to know the benefits and costs of keeping my plants in containers instead of just planting them outside, because I'm sick of bringing them inside everytime the weather dips below freezing, only to take them right back outside because my cats love to chomp on them. I liked it enough to check out regular Gardening for Dummies, too.

This book has provide me with countless tips on getting my containers filled with flowers! Or will, anyway, as soon as I get to the flower shop. The chapters are short and informative and they provide various chapters on container selection, soil selection, chapters on how water and fertilize and what flowers work best in which climate.

I would recommend this one to anyone starting out. Very informative.
