Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Home Vegetable-Garden: Suggestions of Real Gardens for Home-Makers Makers and Others
Do you know how fragrant a cucumber blossom is? So fragrant, it fills its place in the garden full of perfume, when the dew forms at night. The big clumsy martynia grows scores of exquisite orchid-like blooms. The okra blossom has colors as rich and varied as those of the choicest gladioli. Garden peas are as pretty as sweet peas. Blossom and fruit; bird song and sunlight and cool shade; the fresh odor of the newly turned soil; the con tinual surprises and the wonder of growth - these are some of the riches of a real gardener.
