PASSIONATE GARDENING
GOOD ADVICE FOR CHALLENGING
CLIMATES
by Lauren Springer & Rob Proctor. Fulcrum
Publishing: Golden, CO, 2000. List price: $34.95.
From dust jacket:
"For over a decade, Lauren Springer and
Rob proctor have been good friends and garden writing colleagues. In Passionate
Gardening, readers will be entertained, informed, and inspired by the pair's
practical wisdom, wit and tales of perseverance. Gardeners who live in
challenging climates where extremes of temperature, wind, and more are the norm
need to know how garden success depends on the most appropriate plant
selections, the best gardening techniques, and maximizing the seasons. Every
subject the authors tackle--from early snows to slugs, from bulbs to botanical
Latin--urges readers to make the most of the gardens they tend.
"Passionate Gardening takes the
gardener through the seasons in a most comprehensive, yet pleasurable and
accessible way, as the authors celebrate a diversity of plants for every site
and every season. They champion sound, ecologically friendly gardening
techniques, from soil and water issues to pest management. They also offer up
stories of their horticultural adventures as their personal gardens have
evolved, making this lively, information-packed reading with a personal, real
touch.
"Hailed by critics and fellow garden
writers as among the top American garden writers of today, Lauren and Rob have
translated their shared passion for gardening into gardens that thrive
beautifully and into a new book that will raise the spirits, expectations, and
results of all those who read it. With its mixture of sparkling essays and lush
photographs, Passionate Gardening is an indispensable guide for both budding and
seasoned gardeners."
This 336-page hard cover is in
excellent condition, very clean, and is a beautiful book. Its only flaw is that
someone has clipped the price off the inside corner of the dust jacket. However,
this does nothing to detract from the book.
