Garden Hand Tools

Product Description
Every gardener loves perennials. Buy them and plant them, and most will flourish and even expand year after year. But in addition to reliability, perennials offer gardeners a wonderful opportunity to make a stunning visual statement in their home landscapes–if you know how to combine and arrange them.

Product Description
The best-laid perennial garden designs result in gorgeous beds that bring color and texture to home landscapes. But no matter how perfect the garden, how glorious the color, how eye-catching the combinations, no perennial garden stays beautiful by itself. The plants need tender care – watering, pruning, deadheading, and dividing.

With Nancy Ondra’s detailed plant-by-plant guide to tending perennials, maintenance is a breeze. Ondra has grown hundreds of today’s most popular perennials in her own gardens and has kept detailed notes on how each plant looks through the seasons and what the plants’ needs, quirks, and preferences are. All this valuable information is gathered in 125 plant profiles, arranged alphabetically by genus. Each entry features gorgeous, instructive photography by award-winning garden photographer Rob Cardillo, as well as advice on preferred light and soil conditions and complete care and maintenance instructions.
