The rose is the Queen of Flowers. Roses are beautiful, fragrant, and elegant - and they require all the pampering of a real queen, don't they? Actually, they don't! Rose gardening can be easy and pleasant. I've worked 25 years in horticulture and cared for over 300 roses in a public rose garden when I was municipal horticulturist. I found ways to keep rose gardening fuss-budgetry to a minimum while growing vigorous roses that bloomed their heads off. Rose to the Occasion shares tricks and shortcuts that rosarians use.

Welcome to the world of tomato gardening. There’s nothing as sweet and good as a sun-warmed tomato fresh from the garden on a hot summer afternoon. It’s no wonder that tomatoes are the most popular vegetable in America (though botanically, tomatoes are a fruit). Cordell’s audiobook walks you through the steps in raising tomatoes – through starting tomato seeds, planting (and tricks for planting tomatoes early), and staking and caging tomatoes.

A must for any homeowner

I bought this randomly not expecting much from it and was pleasantly surprised. The writing of the book lends itself very well to an audio book format. The narration was by far the best I've heard from an audio book and really showed the emotion of the author very well. I'm not a huge lawn guy, but I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this book and actually retained a lot of the knowledge from the book. In fact I went from not caring too much about my lawn to being excited about it. Highly recommended for any house owner.
