Month-by-month Gardening In Georgia

Rating:
Summary: A Good Reference Book
Review: Being new to the area, and wanting to get familiar with local plants, I found the information in this book to be very helpful. The month by month directions were helpful for plants I was unfamiliar with. My bigest critisim of it would be that there are no color pictures of the plants described so you have to have a hefty botanical book in order to see all of the plants mentioned. They should have a reference section such as that of Southern Living or Sunset which has small color pictures showing the desribed plants. That would make this book perfect.

Summary: Excellent Book
Review: Fantastic book, particularly for new gardeners or home owners. It breaks down plants into categories (annuals, bulbs, trees, houseplants, etc) then gives you monthly direction on caring for the plants. The back contains some appendixes which recommend varieties and pesticides.

If you're interested in vegetable gardening, combine this book with Georgia Fruit and Vegetable Book.

Review: This book was loaned to me by a long-time gardener at church who said it was the best out there and now I have my own copy becuase I kept going to her house to look up something. I love the way it seperates chores by month and area of garden.
