September 8, 2010 at 8:40 pmI love gardening and really don’t have any good stories. Except for the time when my husband put the round up in my bug sprayer and I sprayed all our plants. Took me a few days when they were wilting to realize what had happened. To this day round up does alot better on plants then weeds.

September 8, 2010 at 5:40 pmWhen we were first married my husband planted a great tomato patch. One day while he was at work I found some giant Tomato bugs on them. Instead of just picking them off I promptly got out the bug killer. It was the kind you mix yourself & of coarse I mixed it wrong. It killed the bugs and the plants too. They were gone within an hour. 12 later I’m still not living it down. Thanks for the giveaway!

September 8, 2010 at 2:52 pmAfter we moved in to our new house people kept mentioning how beautiful our backyard used to be with all the different wildflowers that the previous owner loved to grow. No one mentions how it looks now, I guess it is time to try to restore it to its former glory. This book would help. Thanks.

September 8, 2010 at 10:32 amI could really use this book as a green thumb I do not have; my craziest story I guess is that the best plant I have going is a basil plant that planted itself in a pot that use to house a spider plant that the cats ate!

September 8, 2010 at 8:22 amLast year was my first attempt at a garden, I didn’t know what I was doing and planted something like 14 tomato plants.. (Luckily I found a great tomato soup recipe!)

September 8, 2010 at 7:58 amMy husband loves listening to Joy in the Garden! Would make a great gift for him. Every year our yard looks better and our garden expands, but there’s lots to know! My garden story … my husband planted a baby apple tree. It actually produced one little apple its 1st year and my husband was so proud! My cute little 3 year old picked it before it was ready. My husband ate it anyway, sour and all!! Haha!! Then my cute little puppy chewed all the branches off and the poor tree died!
