Grow Fruit door Alan Buckingham

This is a pretty glossy book with many lush photos and detailed images of how to plant and prune. At first I wasn't sure if that was all it had going for it, but I find I really like the seasonal calendar for each fruit type and overall the quantity of information is just right for getting the basics down for successful fruit growing.

The Kitchen Garden door Alan Buckingham

The best month-by-month guide to gardening....I love it! As a vegetable gardener, I am delighted there is always something to be done in my garden...even in Vermont. The photos and other graphic information are beautiful and while my own plot will never be as tidy or photogenic, I get inspired, not discouraged, when looking through this handsome book.
