Book Description
From why Matucana and High Scent sea peas are far superior to the Valerie Harrod variety, to the easy way to sex an earwig, Dr. Ken Thompson provides an expert's miscellany of gardening knowledge, aimed at making you not necessarily a better gardener--but quite probably a far more thoughtful one.
