Synopsis
He visits thousands of gardeners each year. Some of them see him coming, others are caught by surprise. Far too many never recover. His name is Jack Frost -- and he's coming soon to a garden near you. A Gardener's Guide to Frost is packed with practical advice that every gardener can put to use each summer. Readers will learn to look at their gardens the way Jack Frost does so they can keep their gardens thriving despite his icy visits. The clear, easy-to-understand explanations come from someone with dirt under his fingernails, and the book includes helpful tables and other resources, including a handy chart listing the frost tolerance of common garden vegetables. Readers will also meet some gardeners who have devised ways to keep on gardening right past fall frosts and into winter. For all its practical advice, however, this book doesn't present Jack Frost as some sort of villain who spoils our all-too-short gardening seasons. Rather, it explains how we can learn to garden with frost -- even embracing it as a friend who helps us slow down and appreciate the beautiful and fleeting gifts of gardening. Book jacket., Each year, as you prepare your garden, you know that sooner or later - in the spring or in the fall or in both - Jack Frost will pay you a visit. Knowing that, what can you do at the start of the gardening season to prepare for those frosty nights? In this book, all aspects of frost are explained to help gardeners start their planting earlier in the spring and extend their growing season later in the fall. You'll learn what weather systems produce frost, how it damages, or enhances, the flavor of your plants, how to read your garden's microclimate, and how to design your garden so you can work with frost, instead of against it. The informative text is paired with beautiful full-color photos of useful frost protection techniques and wonderful gardens in their full frosty splendor.

- t***7 (312)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseA Great CD at a great price. However I would refrain from the type of packaging used as the jewel case was in pieces but the CD was intact. My experience with receiving CD's is quite substantial. The ones that survive are wedged between two pieces of cardboard wrapped by tape and put in a white bubble Shipping pack the size of the CD. I've yet to have one delivered broken. I'd pay the extra cost for it myself just because of the cost to me replacing the CD Jewel Case. They're not cheap. Stan
