It does this by exploring the most common causes of plant death: Choosing the wrong plants in the first place Over-watering them The ills of bad soilThe ill-conceived transplantsThe fertilizing issue The bugs issue The I-cant-bear-to-prune-my-plants syndromeAnd more!In so doing, this book debunks myths left and rightlike that disastrous water once a week thing.
