Garden Lover's Guide: San Francisco Bay Area

Enjoying a temperate climate year-round and lots of rain and sun, the San Francisco Bay Area is ideal for gardening — as the thousands of fanatic gardeners around the bay will attest. Yet, until now, no one has assembled a comprehensive guidebook to the hundreds of resources in this garden-rich region. Writer and former professional gardener Ron Sullivan comes to the rescue with The Garden Lover's Guide: San Francisco Bay Area. Her complete, easy-to-use, and inviting handbook covers all the nurseries, equipment and supply stores, accessory outlets, flower and garden shows, special events, classes, clubs, tours, and bookstores with a green thumb around the bay. Discover hidden gardens, festive annual bazaars, outdoor sales, and so much more. For both novice and seasoned gardeners, this is the long-awaited guide to everything the Bay Area garden scene has to offer.
