"For Margaret Roach gardening is more than a hobby, it’s a calling. Her unique approach to gardening, which she refers to as “horticultural how-to and woo-hoo,” is a blend of vital information to memorize (like how to plant a bulb) and intuitive steps gardeners simply feel and surrender to. Roach first shared her gardening methods more than twenty years ago. Now, in a completely revised celebratory edition of A Way to Garden, she returns to the source and explores how she and her way of gardening have changed over the years. Following the cycle of life, she explores the garden from conception to the afterlife. Throughout, she shares helpful advice on ornamental plants, vegetable gardening, garden design, and organic practices. Most importantly, she challenges gardeners to think beyond their borders and consider the many ways that gardening can enrich the world. Lushly illustrated with hundreds of photographs and from one of the most trusted voices in gardens, A Way to Garden is a must-have for gardeners everywhere." -- Goodreads.com.
