Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Gardener's Practical Manual Since White's "Gardening for the South," first published in 1856, there has been no work which furnished a reliable, practical guide to the southern gardener. There are works which treat instructively of the scientific principles involved in the art of gardening. There are others which, emanating from the northern states, are valuable for that section of our country, but, owing to variations of soil and climatic conditions, they possess little value as a guide to the southern gardener. The object of this work is to furnish a reliable, practical guide to those who desire to avail themselves of the wonderful facilities afforded by our sunny Southland for supplying the family table with fresh vegetables from the kitchen-garden every day in the year. Fifty years of successful experience in gardening and fruit-growing on both a domestic and a commercial scale, inspires some measure of confidence in my ability and right to speak ex cathedra on the subject. During an official life of thirty years, in close touch with the tillers of the soil, and through a voluminous correspondence, covering answers to letters of inquiry from farmers and horticulturists, I have been impressed with the need of a work of the character of the one now attempted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gardening in the South IS book owes its being to the fact that up to the present time literature dealing with the planting of home grounds in the middle and upper South has not been obtainable. Nothing specific has been written to help the Southern home owner solve the problems connected with the planting and maintenance of beautiful grounds. It is true that a book on gardening appeared which dealt entirely with plants and conditions encountered along the Southern coastal country and the State of Florida, this section having an almost entirely different flora from the middle and upper South.

This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Massey's Garden Book for the Southern States OR years past, many readers of The Progressive Farmer F have been asking me to prepare a garden book. Therefore, in the intervals of a very busy life, I have prepared this little volume. It is not intended to be a treatise on horticulture, but is simply a little handbook for daily guidance in making the farm garden. I hope it may have some influence in promoting all-the year-round gardening in the South and aid in abolishing the old-style garden which is surrendered to weeds and dead corn stalks in the fall; and will make it possible instead to have gar dens yielding their products without cessation.

Download or read book Maverick Gardeners written by Felder Rushing and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2021-03-17 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Be forewarned that this book honors people like the woman in my hometown who paints the numbers of her favorite NASCAR drivers on her elephant ears, and a Tokyo gardener with over a hundred bonsai plants.” So says renowned garden journalist Felder Rushing in his new book Maverick Gardeners: Dr. Dirt and Other Determined Independent Gardeners. In this book, Felder delves deeply into the psychology of what motivates and sustains the Keepers of the Garden Flame. For thousands of years, a loosely connected web of unique, nontraditional gardeners has bonded people across race, culture, language, and other social conventions through sharing unique plants and stories. Found in nearly every neighborhood worldwide, these “determined independent gardeners” (DIGrs) are typically nonjoiners who garden simply and exuberantly, eschewing customary horticultural standards in their amateur pursuits of personal bliss. Included in Maverick Gardeners are classic “passalong plant” lists, a dollop of how-to, numerous color photographs, and thought-provoking essays on quintessential tools, sharing with others, getting away with wildflowers in suburbia, and organizing a plant swap. The centerpiece of this unique gardening journey is the no-holds-barred story of a ten-year cross-cultural collaboration between the horticulturist author and a flamboyant rebellious gardener who called himself Dirt. Through swapping plants and garden lore—and rubbing shoulders with fellow DIGrs—they unraveled their shared humanity. From the practical to the inspiring, Maverick Gardeners is the perfect book for those nonconformist souls who see no sense in trying to fit in and follow the footpaths of others.

Download or read book The Education Of A Gardener written by Russell Page and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2007-07-03 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russell Page, one of the legendary gardeners and landscapers of the twentieth century, designed gardens great and small for clients throughout the world. His memoirs, born of a lifetime of sketching, designing, and working on site, are a mixture of engaging personal reminiscence, keen critical intelligence, and practical know-how. They are not only essential reading for today’s gardeners, but a master’s compelling reflection on the deep sources and informing principles of his art. The Education of a Gardener offers charming, sometimes pointed anecdotes about patrons, colleagues, and, of course, gardens, together with lucid advice for the gardener. Page discusses how to plan a garden that draws on the energies of the surrounding landscape, determine which plants will do best in which setting, plant for the seasons, handle color, and combine trees, shrubs, and water features to rich and enduring effect. To read The Education of a Gardener is to wander happily through a variety of gardens in the company of a wise, witty, and knowledgeable friend. It will provide pleasure and insight not only to the dedicated gardener, but to anyone with an interest in abiding questions of design and aesthetics, or who simply enjoys an unusually well-written and thoughtful book.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1860 edition. Excerpt: ... MISCELLANEOUS RECEIPTS. METHOD OF REARING TURKEYS. The following curious method of rearing turkeys to advantage, is taken from a Swedish author: --"Many of our housewives," he says, "have long despaired of success in rearing turkeys, and complain that the profit rarely indemnifies them for their trouble and loss of time, whereas little more is to be done than to plunge the chick into a vessel of cold wTater the very hour, if possible, but at least the very day that it is hatched, forcing it to swallow at least one whole peppercorn; after which let it be returned to its mother. From that time it will become hardy, and fear the cold no more than a hen's chicken. But it must be remembered that this useful species of fowls are also subject to one particular disorder when they are young, which often carries them off in a few days. When they begin to droop, examine carefully the feathers on the rump, and you will find two or three whose quill parts are filled with blood; upon drawing them the chick recovers, and after that requires no other care than wThat is commonly bestowed upon poultry that range the court-yard." The truthfulness of these assertions is well known in Sweden, where the plan has been highly successful for many years. ANOTHER METHOD. The principal remedy necessary, in the first instance, appears to be a stimulant, to counteract the extreme feebleness which attends young turkeys, more than other fowls, in the earliest stages of their existence; hence a grain of pepper, &c, is usually administered as soon as hatched. But instinct, their infallible guide, it appears, has more successfully directed them to the wild onion, which is proved to be a powerful restorative to their natures, and, in fact, a grand panacea to the race; when...
