    Oh, I would love this book. I can so relate to being obsessed with gardening. As someone once told me, gardening is cheaper than therapy:)

    I think I would love that book. Have you read "Founding Gardeners" yet? I loved it, and depending on how much you like reading about history, you'd probably like it, too.

    I would love to win this book! I know why I garden--it's a challenge with lots of beauty as a reward....not to mention the serenity I feel out in the garden!

    I love winter since it gives me the luxury of time to read books. You see I would rather be outside in my garden when the weather is nice. Please enter me in your drawing.
