The Weekend Gardener. Here Is Just Some Of The Information You Will Find Inside.
Introduction
Too many demands, too little time for the joy of gardening? One of the hard facts of modern life is that crammed schedules and crushing workloads seem to conspire to make gardening a threatened pastime.
The Weekend Garden
You want your garden to bring pleasure and satisfaction, - not provoke anxiety because there just isn't enough time to plant the petunias, tie up the tomatoes or prune the privet before sundown.
You can have a garden and enjoy it too. You need not be a slave to even a large garden. When carefully designed and filled with trouble free plants you will discover the time to b-r-e-a-t-h-e in the beauty; you can let this kind of garden practically take care of itself.
A New Vision Of Lawn Care
Let's make your lawn an easier, more enjoyable lawn by employing low-maintenance ground covers, shrubs and trees. The funny thing about what you will discover in this chapter is that, surprisingly, this easy lawn will most likely far outshine your old one in appearance, too!
Lawn maintenance consumes more gardening time than just about any other garden chore. They must be mowed, weeded, watered, fertilized, limed, dethatched, re-seeded, edged, and raked of debris including leaves.
The Perfect Weekend Flower Garden
Your flower beds, like everything you find in this book should be low-maintenance. If you set up flower beds that need little pampering they take care of themselves.
Perennials, shrubs, and bulbs that are specially selected to thrive in their sites; drought resistant flowers that grow in the dry sandy soil where it may be difficult to get a water hose to them; shade loving flowers and ferns to decorate borders beneath trees.
Delicious Weekend Vegetable Gardens
The best way to get going with your backyard vegetable garden is to cultivate using intensive gardening techniques, which can produce large yields in small places. The process can be boiled down to two practices: creating a rich, abundant soil, and spacing plants in beds instead of rows.
Intensive gardening requires fluffy, nutrient rich soil. Without great soil vegetables, planted closely together, compete with each other for meager provisions, and everybody loses. Especially you, the weekend gardener.
Fruits Made Easier
You'll learn how to select the right cultivars for your climate and I'll throw in a warning about the pitfalls in growing each type of fruit. We want a great harvest, and as little work as possible - a theme that stretches the length and breadth of this book.
Natural Landscapes
When we encounter a natural landscape of mountain range, woodland waterfall or deep forested valleys with wildflower meadows - it can take our breath away.
We are transported to a place of relaxation and contemplation within ourselves. The repast enjoyed by such scenes are enough to make the most work-adverse weekend gardener aspire to greatness with nature.
Easy Care Plants for Weekenders
The ground covers here are also low-maintenance plants , the shade and ornamental trees were carefully selected to include only those species that are longliving. Only evergreen and flowering shrubs that require little maintenance found their way into the list, as well.
The best woodland wildflowers and hardy ferns for shade gardens are allowed in too. Here you'll find care-free flowers and grasses for a colorful meadow garden.
The Lost Weekend
Fred used to spend every daylight hour on Saturday and Sunday doing back breaking work in his garden. Dirty, disheveled and perspiring he was not a happy camper.
By the time Monday rolled around, Fred would drag his aching back and muscles off to his job and prepare to do the same thing all over again when the next weekend arrived. Sound familiar?
The really sad part about his story, is that even after putting in all that hard work, his yard really didn't look all that great!
You see Fred isn't any different than most property home owners. Just like you, he wanted to have a garden that would bring pleasure and satisfaction. The only problem is time ... the lack of it!
Most people content themselves with hiring out a landscaping firm to develop and shape a desirable lawn, and perhaps, a trip to the local farmers' market', once or twice a season, for fresh vegetables.
