I will pass along the links and maybe check out the garden magazine. I don’t want to overwhelm her. She never liked getting her hands “dirty” with gardening while growing up. Before they moved, she had asked me to help her with a few pots of plants for her porch. We did flowers and a few veggies. She was so proud of putting them together without wearing gloves and all. LOL Their 3 year old LOVES being outside and would help me pick veggies in our garden. Now that they have their own place (his granny’s old house) she is more interested. They are near the Dallas area.

Chances are if the daughter looks around much at gardening in that area she will come in contact with Howard Garrett, aka The Dirt Doctor. He has a business there and helps with the landscaping for some of the suburbs up there. He's at most of the home and garden events and does seminars that are interesting. So, if she is looking to learn she'll come in contact with him. He is a great down to earth teacher.
