Re: Test your gardening IQ

I'm a relative newby, and got 12 right! I am very proud of that! Also, most of the ones that I got wrong were partially right, ie picking one when the correct answer was "all of the above", so I am taking my 12 and running with it!

I would love this book! First spring in a new house and I have all sorts of updates to do, and this sounds like a great read to inspire ideas!
