Read full description of the books:

This is THE quintessential go-to book for gardening questions. Damrosch takes it to the next level--but only if the reader needs to go there. It works for the beginning gardener, listing plant by plant, the basics required to grow it. For the advanced gardener, she includes soil breakdowns and pH, along with pests and how to treat them. She takes the reader from beginning to end--the best basic tools, how to care for them, how to store them. There are designs in the book, tips that seem off the wall, BUT, she has been doing this all of her life--gardening is her passion and her field of expertise. Even so, she never loses sight of the practical and common.

Vegetable gardening, herbs, flowers, indoor plants, shrubs, fruit trees, bulbs, lawns...it is all in there.

This should be in every gardener's home. It should be in every big gardening gift basket to newlyweds who want to try gardening--and as a housewarming gift to those who have their first big yard.
