Bountiful ContainerNew! The Bountiful Container
Authors: Rose Marie Nichols McGee and Maggie Stuckey, Softcover: 432 pages

While covering all the basics from choosing containers, creating custom soil mixes, and selecting suitable varieties, The Bountiful Container, with its focus on edibles, goes far beyond what we expect from a container gardening book. McGee and Stuckey give you the tools to maximize production of vegetables, herbs and edible flowers without sacrificing the beauty that one would expect from a container garden in close proximity to your home. Great ideas for theme gardens and succession planting for a bountiful and beautiful container garden.
