The Curious Gardener's Almanac: Centuries of Practical Garden Wisdom by Niall Edworthy
The Curious Gardener's Almanac: Centuries of Practical Garden Wisdom

Catherine Cook, November 11, 2007

This is such a fun book! Here, Mr. Edworthy, has compiled all sorts of gardening information from tidbits to lists to recipes to quotes...you name it! And, it's all delightfully arranged by season with even a ribbon to mark your place. I loved learning, for instance that "The City of Mount Vernon in Washington State grows more tulips a year than the entire Netherlands." (page 124) Who would have thought that! (Besides those Mount Vernon-ers, of course.) You'll love this book! I do!
