garden plans submitted by ssands on June 28, 2015, 3:34pm There's a lot here. These look like plans that you could just go to the nursery, pick up some six-packs, and plop them in the ground, but I think most of them are really better as inspiration. Each is designed by someone different and the level of detail for each differs. There are some good recommendations for specific plants, too.

Inspiring submitted by thesrays on August 28, 2020, 6:14am If you combine various aspects of each garden, who needs the grocery store? This book will provide inspiration, but also tangible problem solving advice on how to deal with a broad variety of issues...from what to grow in the shade, to overwintering figs, to planting a year-round garden...even here in Michigan! Happy growing!
