Description
Garden Myths Book 1, the first in the series of two books, examines over 120 horticultural urban legends. Turning wisdom on its head, Robert Pavlis dives deep into traditional garden advice and debunks the myths and misconceptions that abound. He asks critical questions and uses science-based information to understand plants and their environment. Armed with the truth, Robert then turns this knowledge into easy-to-follow advice:
- Is fall the best time to clean the garden?
- Do bloom boosters work?
- Will citronella plants reduce mosquitoes in the garden?
- Do pine needles acidify soil?
- Should tomatoes be suckered?
- Should trees be staked at planting time?
- Can burlap keep your trees warm in winter?
- Will a pebble tray increase humidity for houseplants?
