Prairie Gardener's Go-To for Small Spaces

Have you ever been in the garden, hat on, fingers grubby, knees wet, and wondered, “What the heck is that?” Or been approached by a customer on a busy Saturday in May, asking an obscure question about the ideal soil temperature range for planting specific flowers, and thought, “I wish there was a handy guide for that?”

Enter the Guides for Prairie Gardener by Janet Melrose and Sheryl Normandeau, two master gardeners with a lifetime of experience. Whether you’re looking for information on that one tiny pest you just can’t control, or are talking a new gardener through their first planting season, these slim but mighty volumes make great companions at the height of summer in the garden trenches and during cold winter days planning the next season.
