This book, a compilation of “Garden Q & A” columns from The New York Times, is well organized, well written, and a gardening book for everyone – not just those of us with perpetually dirty knees and who get stopped at airport security because we forgot to remove the bypass pruners from our purse. As a professional garden designer, I get lots of questions in social settings. My answers always revolve around “buy this book and read it”. I even keep a copy in my car so that if I get delayed, I can continue my self education. It’s a perfect hostess gift and/or thank you present for all levels of gardeners. Don’t leave home without it! (And the pricing on Amazon is great, new or previously perused!)

This book was bought as a gift for someone who is a seasoned gardener. She requested the book and loves it. Highly recommended.

Interesting book, but being in southern CA, I found it not so informative for my zone. Yet, there were many good ideas, current and modern items on the market.

When I have a question this is one of the books I reach for and then find I have forgotten to put dinner on because I am still reading through the rest of the book! Four star because I would like more regional info.
