Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Teaming with Microbes A Gardeners Guide to the Soil Food Web
by
Jeff Lowenfels
Colleen Miko
, November 02, 2009
Lots to learn here about the soil food web with helpful information on how to enrich one's soil. Specific recommendations for improving soil with consideration for the type of plants one is cultivating make it a practical read. Soil science is a burgoning field and this book should be updated in a few years to reflect new scientific discoveries regarding the efficacy and applications of compost tea. That being said, the book is still very germane and important to read.

Hortus Miscellaneous A Gardeners Hodgepodge of Information & Instruction
by
Lorene Edwards Forkner
Colleen Miko
, November 02, 2009
Because of its format, this book is wonderful for a guestroom night stand or bathroom. Short tidbits of interesting information for both new and seasoned gardeners and the basically curious. Great for anytime you have just a minute to read or don't want to commit to anything involved. It would make a good stocking stuffer. An example of tables: Therapeudic qualities of essential oils; Common Lawn Weeds; White House National Christmas Trees dating back to 1924 (species, size and state of origin). Other information herein: How to Candy a Violet; List of plants found in Sissinghurst's White Garden; public gardens of interest per region; definition of El Nino. Fun.
