Have a favorite book about gardening that you would love to share with other members? Can be non-fiction or fiction, even a childrens book would be fine. If you can, add an image from the book!

I DO THINK THAT THERE IS SOME OVERLAP HERE. I STARTED THE "BERRY GROWERS" GROUP SEVERAL DAYS AGO. IT MAY BE WISE TO HAVE ONE GROUP AND OF COURSE, MANY DISCUSSIONS WITHIN IT. THE RESPONSE TO "BERRY GROWERS" HAS BEEN GOOD AND I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT YOU HAVE JOINED : )

I know what you mean I have a yorkie and he is the sweetest thing you could ever want - unconditional love if only human can learn from them the world would be a awesome place. I would love another yorkie but that will only cause pure hell in my house.

I loved Jamie Oliver's show too. I wish there was a show with his gardener!!! In fact I wrote HGTV (owned by the same people as food network) and told them so. Would like to have the outdoor oven.
