Gardening is fun, relaxing and enjoyable, but many beginners don't know where to start. If you kill plastic plants, this book is for you. "Get Your Hands Dirty" is a simple, down to earth guide to starting a garden. Whether you want to grow flowers, vegetables, herbs or just a lawn, you'll learn the basics: soil, light, watering, plant selection. Written by award-winning writer Jeanne Grunert (who gardens on a 17 acre organic farm in Virginia), it's like chatting over the back fence with an experienced gardener and asking all the questions you were too embarrassed to ask.
