How To Grow Practically Everything GIVEAWAY!! (Canada Only) CLOSED

This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Anne for winning.

HOW TO GROW PRACTICALLY EVERYTHING

-information taken from the DK Canada website

Packed with hundreds of gardening projects, from planting herbs in pots to creating a vegetable garden to feed the family, How to Grow Practically Everything gives complete beginners the confidence and know-how to grow almost anything. Each project is a complete package, with step-by-step photographic details and sumptuous end shots to ensure great results. How to Grow Practically Everything employs a user-friendly "recipe" formula free from intimidating jargon, covers different areas and types of gardens-from patios and terraces to beds and borders-and explores all the gardening basics, from identifying your soil to planting tips and pruning.


MY REVIEW

This book is truly amazing. The sheer amount of information contained within it's pages astounds me. I love how easy the book is to read. I love that I understand all the instructions! I love that there are tons and tons of bright and colourful pictures. I love that the book covers everything from identifying plant types to how to create a winter windowbox and choosing the right containers for your plants. 


I have had several gardens over the years but I am not a gardening guru by any stretch of the imagination. I am certain that any question I could EVER have would be answered in How to Grow Practically Everything. No matter what type of gardener you are I am certain you would love this book. I highly recommend it!


You can look inside the book HERE.


Thanks so much to DK Canada for sending me a review copy of this book and for sponsoring this giveaway.

I could use this book! I am a new green thumb (was a brown thumb for the longest time) until online friends taught me how to do it right. I am still learning.
