Présentation de l'éditeur

This book boldly goes where no plant book has gone before: to the hard-hitting facts of what works and what doesnt workwhen it comes to growing lush, beautiful plants that bring joy and beauty into our lives. It does this by exploring the most common causes of plant death: Choosing the wrong plants in the first place Over-watering them The ills of bad soilThe ill-conceived transplantsThe fertilizing issue The bugs issue The I-cant-bear-to-prune-my-plants syndromeAnd more!In so doing, this book debunks myths left and rightlike that disastrous water once a week thing. It throws out the silly plant hypelike that nonsense you find in any other plant book about how fussy African violets are. This down-to-earth guide is chock-full of vivid information, humorous examples and analogies. In short this foolproof guide is guaranteed to turn around the worst plant killer!
