Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from When Mother Lets Us Garden: A Book for Little Folk Who Want to Make Gardens and Don't Know How
The first thing is to find a place for your gar den. Don't choose a place near a tree or under a tree, or your ?owers Will find little to eat because the tree-roots Will have been there before them. If you can, get a place in the full sunshine. If you can't have sunshine all day, try for a place which has the morning sun, rather than the afternoon sun. Flowers are like children and like to wake up early in the morning; there are only a few that prefer sleeping late.
Beside your little garden, try to have a place for a seed-bed; this need not be large and, if pos sible, it should have the morning sun, and Shade part of the day. Here you sow in narrow rows little plants which later you transplant to their homes in your garden.
