Re: Book Giveaway: Container Gardening for All Seasons

I've started placing fairly good sized containers out in my perennial beds where I need a shot of color or where I want a little more vertical interest. It's kind of interesting to mix and match multiple plants in one container; I'm still learning how to make these combinations dramatic.

Re: Book Give-Away: Beautiful No-Mow Yards, by Evelyn J. Hadden
