Can astrological and lunar conditions predict the best times for planting? What is the link between trees and their owners? These questions reflect some of folklore that has guided gardeners for generations. Author Margaret Baker based this classic book on letters she received from gardeners in the USA and Britain; first-person accounts of the wisdom growers have passed down through families and cultures. This book of gardener’s folklore, first published in 1976, is a delightful read that might even offer a few tips to help your own garden grow.
