Summary: Emerald Green
Comment: I bought this book for my husband and 2 years later.....unbelieveable success. Our neighborhood of clinically trimmed lawns by landscapers actually have asked WHO does your lawn. My husband has given this book to friends and they are always inspired when they see ours. Our neighbor bought it a year after we started. I am happy because I have small kids and if I had a dog, I would be comfortable that all of them were not being exposed to chemicals through their nose, skin by rolling around in toxic chemicals. Simple solutions by Jerry Baker - THANKS!

Summary: VERY USER FRIENDLY
Comment: I really enjoyed the book. It was laid out in a straight forward manner, and I can see why do many have purchased this book over the years.
Baker's book trades on simplicity and practicality and in that respect reminded me of Haley's Hints. Haley's Hints
I recommend this book to anyone with a love of gardening or think they may have it within themselves to develop a love of gardening.

Summary: The Impatient Gardener
Comment: I started using this book in mid summer and so far I have been amazed. I purchased a house that had nothing but weeds in the back yard. I hired someone to get rid of the weeds and all they did was kill what little grass there was. A friend gave me The Impatient Gardener and I started doing what it recommended and now I have a yard full of grass. My next door neighbor came over to find out what I had done to make the grass grow. I plan on giving her the book for Christmas.
