This accessible guide identifies the 100 most common gardening mistakes and gives gardeners the techniques to prevent them or fix them.

Remedies for all garden woes are there for the taking: the challenge is to know what will work and what won’t. Fearlessly conducting original experiments and harvesting wisdom from the scientific literature, horticulturist Jeff Gillman assesses new and historic advice and reveals the how and why — and sometimes the why not — for more than 100 common and uncommon gardening practices.

If you’ve ever wondered about the merits of a specific insecticide, herbicide, or fungicide, or debated whether practices such as planting cover crops or companion plants are worth the trouble, you’ll find the answers you’ve sought in these pages, along with a clear, careful, and good-humored analysis of benefits and drawbacks.

These tips and tricks — from starting seeds to preserving produce and from using compost to conserving water — will help pennywise gardeners control costs.

Here is a fresh take on life outdoors for gardeners with acres of land, simple city-sized plots, or even just a windowsill. Its never been this easy to transform a patch of land into an oasis filled with handcrafted flair and made-fromscratch ingenuity.

Step-by-step instructions for dozens of easy, do-it-yourself décor ideas include containers of all shapes and sizes, elegant benches and stools, miniature ponds and birdbaths, stepping stones, a barbecue, and a fire pit. At pennies per pound, and so simple to use — just mix with water and pour — concrete is the key to hand-crafted backyard décor.

This hands-on guide features basic information on how to add color to concrete using dyes, paints, and inlaid materials. The 20 step-by-step projects include small items, like a highly textured candle holder, and larger pieces, like a beautiful fire pit that is the perfect gathering place for friends and family.

This highly illustrated handbook on the art of mosaic features a primer on the fundamentals and 25 step-by-step projects, including pots, tables, and a birdhouse, arranged in order of difficulty. Project templates are included, along with instructions on how to scale the projects.
