Thanks for the book link Jeff, it looks a really excellent choice. That’s the thing I find hardest at the moment what to plant and where! JT

Here’s one I gave Susan for Christmas — Plant-driven Design: Creating Gardens that Honor Plants, Place and Spirit…http://www.amazon.com/Plant-Driven-Design-Creating-Gardens-Plants/dp/0881928771/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1231869780&sr=8-1

We both love the way the authors prompt you to think anew about what you plant and where you plant it!

I’ll put it down on my reading list, maybe for the Easter holidays when I have some time.
I wouldn’t worry too much about trying to become a ‘garden expert’, tending your own garden with perseverance and love will result in an osmosis of knowledge about your own garden plants and your garden’s growing conditions and this can be expanded by dipping into books and (especially helpful) talking to gardening neighbours. Just enjoy your garden.
