What is A Garden of One's Own : Making and Keeping Your Flower Garden about?

<i>A Garden of One's Own</i> includes an action plan for designing and creating a personal flower garden, beginnning in the fall, when your ambitions for next year's plantings are just taking shape. Early chapters describe the many basic tasks and choices that confront a gardener through the seasons: flower bed preparation, seed selection and indoor planting, fertilizing and weeding. There is also valuable instruction on the more advanced notions of color combination and the timing of growths to assure a steady balance of flowers throughout the season. <p>In a voice reminiscent of M.F.K. Fisher, one of the great personalities of the gardening world shares the techniques and insights that have made her extraordinary garden bloom from spring to late fall. With the eye of an artist, Bakalar offers a gardener's vision--enhanced by color photos and illustrations. </p>
