"Enchants on many levels.-- "Chicago Tribune"
So many gardening books feature plants' mile-long Latin names and
confusing charts. Not this one. Its easy-to-follow instructions,
diagrams, and photos inspire desire to grow good-for-the-body fresh
produce from little yard space. A bonus: some delicious serving
suggestions. One Magic Square tells you everything you need to get
started and profiles each plant.-- "The Virginian-Pilot"
