JANUARY
IN THE FLOWER GARDEN
|
|
January is the start of the new year and it's also time to start planning your new
garden. Order the seed catalogues, browse through some gardening books and surf
the internet to gain some new ideas. A trip to your garden centre or do-it-yourself
store will also give you some ideas. Visit your local bookstore - browsing through
gardening books (no purchase necessary!) is a cheap alternative to buying books.
