Sage advice
by: jodi DeLong

Ron Robertson has been growing flowers from seeds for more than twenty years now. He’s the kind of garden writer we all love—the kind that takes the time to explain things and never, ever talks down to others. This is a dandy book, and one I’ll recommend wholeheartedly to everyone who’s ever contemplated starting their own seeds—or to those who have tried and succeeded, or tried and been less successful at growing their own transplants. Follow the sage advice of Ron, and your flower garden will be turning heads too, of that I’m sure!
