The Lawn & Garden Owner's Manualby Lewis Hill, Nancy Hill Paperback - 192 pages (February 15, 2000) , Storey Books ISBN: 1580172148 Check price @ amazon.com , amazon.ca , amazon.co.uk Amazon.com Full of useful information on refreshing tired-out lawns and gardens, The Lawn and Garden Owner's Manual is a terrific, comprehensive guide to ongoing care and maintenance of those long-suffering lawns, fruit trees, and ornamental trimmings. Emphasizing care of plants that are already installed and in need of some tender loving care, there are lots of helpful charts and calendars to help you time your tasks properly. Troubleshooting areas are especially helpful for the lawn--you'll learn just how to fix those spots of patchy growth or yellow grass. Plant choices are aimed at providing attractive, low-maintenance options for all types of growing conditions. From grasses to vines, you'll find lots to update your existing lawn. There's both organic and chemical solutions to pest and disease control. The authors caution you never to expect an instant fix for long-term problems--rather than being discouraging, this tactic will be reassuring to novices. There's lots of insight provided into why all these types of upkeep are necessary, and questions like "is pruning really worth it?" are answered in a straightforward manner. Whenever possible, replacements are offered for high-maintenance areas such as enormous lawns or disease-prone roses, and these replacements are often more attractive than the originals. Plenty of eye-pleasing color photos round out this handy, colorful addition to the gardening shelf. --Jill Lightner Better Lawns Step by Step : Step by Step by Joe Provey, Kris Robinson, Neil Soderstrom (Editor) Paperback - 160 pages (February 1999) Creative Homeowner Press ISBN: 1580110517 Building a Healthy Lawn : A Safe and Natural Approach by Stuart Franklin, Jeff Silva (Designer), Deborah Burns (Editor) Paperback - 176 pages 1st Ed. edition (October 1988) Storey Books ISBN: 0882665189 Lawn Care & Gardening : A Down-To-Earth Guide to the Business by Mickey Willis, Kevin Lawn Care Rossi, Gardening Rossi, ur Wedding special Paperback - 258 pages 2nd edition (February 1, 2001) Acton Circle Publishing Company ISBN: 0963937154 Lawn Care For Dummies® by Lance Walheim, National Gardening Association (Editor) Paperback - 368 pages (January 1998) Hungry Minds, Inc ISBN: 0764550772 Ortho's All About Lawns (Ortho's All About Gardening) by Ortho (Editor), Marilyn Rogers, Warren Schultz Paperback - 112 pages (January 1999) Ortho Books ISBN: 0897214218 Picture Perfect : Mowing Techniques for Lawns, Landscapes, and Sports by David R.
