Secrets of Green Thumb Gardening

About this ebook
Trees, shrubs and vegetables are grown most effectively by absorbing the chemicals in the soil.
The proper selection of shrubs and trees that are hardy in the cool climate saves the grower money. Many shrubs are advertised and shipped into stores for spring and fall planting without discrimination as to climate with the sole purpose of making sales. To guard against this, the author has selected those plants that are hardy and most likely to grow and give satisfaction. He has also cautioned against those that are too tender for experiment and those that are taboo.
He describes that arrangement of shrubs according to desirability and degree of sun and shade. The ultimate height, the color of the blossoms, and the proper time for pruning are all taken up in plain, everyday language. The directions for making and feeding a lawn and the ingredients and methods of dusting are described in detail.
This valuable volume will enable the home-owner to enjoy his landscaping and gardens with the least possible loss and the greatest possible pleasure.
