Beginner’s Illustrated Guide to Gardening is a one-stop, easy to understand, beautifully designed book with step-by-step instructions and photographs for every important gardening and landscaping technique. New homeowners with no prior knowledge of landscape care will learn how to turn their yards from weedy, overgrown patches to gorgeous landscapes that are the envy of their neighbors. Young gardeners or new gardeners will learn – the right way – how to take care of everything from perennials to shrubs to their vegetable gardens, ensuring success the first time around. This is the one book that every gardener should have on their bookshelf.
If you have never gardened a day in your life.. This is perfect! This outlines step by step instructions with photos, a plus. Explains each gardening tool, fertilizer, etc. It has the basics on different plants..flowers, veggies, bushes, etc. It doesn’t go into depth on these subjects. However this is exactly what I was looking for. I especially like the glossary of gardening terms, and the chart of plants in back. It lists all plants mentioned in the book with crucial information including how much sun is needed, zone, and amount of water…
Great resource tool for gardeners of all levels
