Download or read book Wildflower Fever written by Regan Strater and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The death of David Thorpe's Aunt Ivy, his only family member and the woman who raised him after his mom died, sets David, 28, on a gentle yet jarring journey of discovery. Along the way the young ad man-turned personal gardener unearths a long buried family secret, the truth about his father (a convicted murderer) and most importantly, the truth about himself and his world. David and his two best friends--smart, independent, confident Lexy Jameson and Michael Laramie, a free spirit and up-and-coming sculptor--inhabit the casually indulgent dawn of their adulthood in 1990's Austin, Texas, and the emotionally repressed but beautiful surrounding areas of the Lone Star State. A transcendent wildflower meadow and David's emerging inner stirrings propel his soul to come out to bloom, to love and to play in the world.

Download or read book A Gardener s Guide to Frost written by Philip Harnden and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He visits thousands of gardeners each year. Some of them see him coming, others are caught by surprise. Far too many never recover. His name is Jack Frost -- and he's coming soon to a garden near you. A Gardener's Guide to Frost is packed with practical advice that every gardener can put to use each summer. Readers will learn to look at their gardens the way Jack Frost does so they can keep their gardens thriving despite his icy visits. The clear, easy-to-understand explanations come from someone with dirt under his fingernails, and the book includes helpful tables and other resources, including a handy chart listing the frost tolerance of common garden vegetables. Readers will also meet some gardeners who have devised ways to keep on gardening right past fall frosts and into winter. For all its practical advice, however, this book doesn't present Jack Frost as some sort of villain who spoils our all-too-short gardening seasons. Rather, it explains how we can learn to garden with frost -- even embracing it as a friend who helps us slow down and appreciate the beautiful and fleeting gifts of gardening. Book jacket.
