Gardening Ideas

This is a collection of gardening ideas, tips and hints,"interesting" links and resources. It is pretty much a collection of interesting things that cross my desk that I think worth sharing with you. Some are serious - some are not-so-serious but we all need a goodly mix of both work and play in our world.

So...

Free Beginner Ebook


Here's a free Ebooks right here for you to download  This is the beginner gardening advice my newsletter readers wrote to help out another beginner gardener.

Book Reviews

Most of us love garden books almost as much as we love gardening.  I've set up a book review page here where you can make comments about your favorite books (add your favorite) or comment on those already there.

Click here to go to the book review page.

Garden Visits


I get to see a lot of gardens on my tours and travels.  I often make videos from the pictures I make so you can get a real feel for the garden as well as what I've written about them.

These are the reports on them.

Garden Blog Directory


Here are some garden blogs for you to check out  and review.  If your favorite garden blog isn't there - tell that blogger to come and submit their site.


Gifts

You might have some ideas about gardening gifts - getting them and giving them.

Let me suggest you tell us about your favorite garden gift that we should check out. What you have or want! (And the rest of us can send our non-gardening significant others to check it out ahead of that special day) :-)


Environment

This is a place for you to contribute posts you find about the environment and how it is influencing gardening.  Or just stuff you think others should know about.

I post there so I hope you do as well.


Garden Opinions

Ah, we've all got a gardening opinion. If you've been gardening for more than a year, you have an opinion of what works for you. Every now and then we all have "one of those days" and think that it is time to tell somebody what we think is important in life.

Tell me about your days.  Here's a space for you to share those important thoughts with us. You'll see some interesting posts there already (links to posts at the bottom of the page) and I hope you'll share your own thoughts.

Some times you can be serious, some times you can be less-than-serious.  I have both kinds of days as this page will show.

Fast Growing Weeds.  I asked my readers why my weeds grew faster while  I was on holidays. These are their responses.

Nursery Sales and Closures were on some gardener's minds this past week, here's my take on nurseries closing down.

Health

Gardening Health - It didn't used to be this way. We just gardened - but now there are health issues gardeners have that seem to pop up now and again; from skin care to pesticide poisoning.  If you have a  resource, you'd like to share - please enter it here.

Interesting Stuff

This gardening information page includes things that don't really "fit" anywhere else.  Like the "Alien" - from the movie - made out of vegetables.

If you have interesting "stuff" about gardening, I invite you to share it here.

I used to do some podcasts (I do video now) and here are the results of those podcasts
