'Being a weekend gardener forces me to make the most of the little time I have,' says Erin Hynes, author of Rodale's Weekend Gardener. 'Over the years, I've found secrets, both big and little, for squeezing the most garden out of every ounce of effort. For example, I grow plants that thrive on neglect, tweak the balance of nature so pests don't get out of hand, and use tricks that cut down on time~consuming chores. This book is about those secrets~my own, and all the tips and tricks that other gardeners have shared with me.' In Rodale's Weekend Gardener, Erin Hynes gives you all the tips and tricks you need to create a low~maintenance garden that's not only easy to look after but a snap to maintain. It's the perfect book for busy people who only have a few hours or the weekend to tend to garden chores. Rodale's Weekend Gardener is divided into four sections so it's really quick and easy to use. The first section, 'Creating Your Weekend Garden,' helps you plan a yard and garden that fit your time and budget and shares weekend garden makeover stories from real gardeners across the country. The second section, 'Making the Least of Garden Care,' tells how to install your lawn and gardens, then how to save time and effort when caring for them. Chapters include 'Putting Your Plan to Work,' 'Mulching Your Way to a Leisurely Life,' 'Watering Wisely and Well,' 'Fast Fertilizing for Healthy Plants,' 'Getting Rid of Weeds the Easy Way,' 'Time~Wise Pest Control,' 'Easy Lawn Mowing and Trimming,' and 'Quick Care for Trees and Shrubs.' Section three, 'Picking Unpicky Plants,' is a gallery of easy~care plants for weekend gardeners. It contains descriptions and growing guidelines for scads of weekend~worthy plants, including trees, shrubs, vegetables, herbs, perennials, annuals, bulbs, and ornamental grasses. You'll find all the best varieties for weekend gardeners. In the fourth section, 'Easy Projects for the Weekend Gardener, ' you'll find garden projects that you can finish in a weekend~or even a few hours! Projects include window boxes, trellises, pathways, compost bins, a patio makeover, a dry stream, and more! Your garden can now be the haven you always wanted~a low~maintenance landscape you can enjoy year~round. ".…

From the Author
I meet many people who want to garden but are intimidated because they think gardens are supposed to look a certain way and are afraid to get it "wrong." A garden is a very personal thing; for me, the pleasure comes as much from the trying (and sometimes failing) as it does from the finished result (which seldom looks the way I envisioned it anyway). So take heart and get started; you can figure it out as you go along. And this book is crammed with ideas and advice to help you along the way.
