Teague: Here's a Guide to Gardening Books By Elinor Teague May 9, 2014 Fresno Bee http://www.fresnobee.com/2014/05/09/3918925/ heres-a-guide-to-gardening-books.html?sp=/99/1355/ . A shorter URL for the above link: . http://tinyurl.com/mplo6s4 . .Here's a list of gardening instruction and reference books that you might not be familiar with, but should find very useful.
.Tops on the list is "The Ortho Home Gardener's Problem Solver." Mine is the smaller, condensed version of the really expensive larger volume. The photos and descriptions of plant diseases, pest insects and their damage are excellent.
. snip .All the small Ortho gardening guides in the "All About ." series are good. When I can't remember an uncommon weed's name, I go to the weed photo gallery in "All About Lawns."
.The pruning instructions and detailed drawings in "All About Pruning" and "All About Roses" take away the fear of making a major pruning mistake.
.The "All About " books are available at most garden centers at moderate prices.
. snip .The UCDavis ANR (Agriculture and Natural Resources) publications including the "California Master Gardener Handbook" ($30) are available online on the ANR website,
. http://www.anrcatalog.ucdavis.edu .Some publications are available as free PDF downloads and others can be ordered through the online catalog. You don't need to be a Master Gardener to order and it doesn't take a PhD. in horticulture to understand the information. The publications are meant to be read and followed by the average home gardener.
.My copy of "The California Master Gardener Handbook" is the preferred reference source for this column; that's why it's in such bad shape.
