A Way to Garden


Book Description

“A Way to Garden prods us toward that ineffable place where we feel we belong; it’s a guide to living both in and out of the garden.” —The New York Times Book Review For Margaret Roach, gardening is more than a hobby, it’s a calling. Her unique approach, which she calls “horticultural how-to and woo-woo,” is a blend of vital information you need to memorize and intuitive steps you must simply feel and surrender to. In A Way to Garden, Roach imparts decades of garden wisdom on seasonal gardening, ornamental plants, vegetable gardening, design, gardening for wildlife, organic practices, and much more. She also challenges gardeners to think beyond their garden borders and to consider the ways gardening can enrich the world. Brimming with beautiful photographs of Roach’s own garden, A Way to Garden is practical, inspiring, and a must-have for every passionate gardener.

The Plain Path to Good Gardening


Book Description

Excerpt from The Plain Path to Good Gardening: Or How to Grow Vegetables, Fruits,& Flowers Successfully The favourable reception of my work, "Gardening for the Cottage," both by the press and the general public, as well as the want of a sufficiently comprehensive book on gardening that will meet every necessity, has induced me to undertake the present work. My former book was commended for its plain and pointed remarks, a principle I have sought to maintain even more fully, and far more comprehensively, in the present work, in which, I flatter myself, will be found all that constitutes "Good Gardening" - the easiest, surest, and best method of attaining entire success, - knowledge acquired as the result of thirty years' experience, under every variety of circumstances, and not always in the same climate.
