Yes, and avid gardeners will find themselves nodding along and laughing out loud as they turn the pages, recognizing their own quirks reflected back to them in Michels words. Whether its the chapter about the four phases of houseplant care or the gardeners unique interpretations of time, measurements, and quantities, one cant help but point and say, Thats me and then read a snippet or paragraph aloud to ones friend or significant other. Through 36 light-hearted essays, readers are treated to a glimpse behind the gate at May Dreams Gardens and the philosophies and musings of its caretaker. Theres take-home wisdom for gardeners new and experienced between the pages. Reviewer Dee Nash says, As you read, I know youll chuckle and be charmed, but you also might just learn a thing or two. A how-to book that teaches the love of gardening. What could be better?
