This book is an irreverent, hysterical look at gardeners and their world. It includes the foibles, fears, joys, and calamities common to all tillers of the soil, as well as the difficult co-existence between gardeners and non-gardeners. The reader is taken on a colorful tour that includes multi-million dollar flower shows; plant pirating; a gardener/non-gardener translation guide; TV garden shows; front yard dictators; the gardener’s war against critters; outdoor, mid-city marijuana growers; what Realtors should know about gardeners shopping for a house/garden; and much more.
