Garden Guides

Comprehensive and reliable information is presented in an easy-read format with good photos and well-laid out text. The entire range of articles - or guides - can be found by clicking on Browse Our Articles, where they are listed under headings such as Basics, Design, Food from the Garden, Herb Gardening, and Water Gardening. Some are in the form of personal stories, others are more academic in style, but all are undoubtedly informative, and accompanied by a short biography of the author.

SPECIAL FEATURES

Flower Guides lists the newer articles on its homepage, and others can be found under the headings Container Gardening, Color, Annuals, Perennials, and Bulbs. Most of these take the form of plant profiles, with a photo, description, and cultivation requirements.

Tips and Techniques cover subjects as diverse as raised beds, toads, and herbal sprays, and often link to related articles in other parts of the site, give low-cost options, and troubleshooting advice.

Vegetable Guides are available on a wide range of vegetables, which each has their own page with information on planting, growing, pests and diseases, harvesting, and links to recipes from the excellent In the Kitchen section.
