Re: The American Meadow Garden : Win A Free Copy of John Greenlee's Book!

What an awesome alternative to boring green lawns! How exciting an idea to recreate a more nature environment- maybe some bees will come back to visit and stay. Taking time away from lawn maintenance will allow more time and energy for home food production and other basics of life.
I believe the home owners' associations may be difficult to sway into acceptance but stranger things have happened. We are slowly being led back to the natural way of life.
Thank you.

Re: Book Review and Giveaway: Succulent Container Gardens

This certainly looks like an addition to my gardening library! This year I have already done several presentations dealing with container gardening- a new favorite with folks in Huntsville Alabama. Succulents in a container can be used in so many situations without a lot of care- and they look the same all the time- except for growing. Great textural contrasts possible. Easy plants.
