Looking for a few great garden books to add to your reading list this winter?
Wintertime is the perfect time for dreaming and planning next year’s garden and flowerbeds. And nothing can help spur on your creativity more than reading up on all kinds of wonderful gardening topics!
One thing is for sure, the long winter months can be tough to handle for gardeners. Not only do the hours of sunlight dwindle, the colder temperatures make it nearly impossible for growing anything outdoors. Making matters worse, except for a few splashes of color from an evergreen here and there, the great outdoors can seem bare, stark, lonely and colorless.
But one thing winter does do is give a gardener a bit of resting time. After all, the body needs a break from all of those planting, watering, weeding and harvesting chores. And while your rest up, a good garden book or two can help pass the time until spring arrives.
Even better, it can fill your mind with all kinds of great gardening ideas for next year! With that in mind, today’s article features five wonderful garden books that can accommodate a wide range of garden interests. We have included a brief overview of each below:
The Chef’s Garden – A Modern Guide To Common & Unusual Vegetables – With Recipes
In Bloom: Growing, Harvesting, and Arranging Homegrown Flowers All Year Round

Carol Deppe’s books “Breed Your Own Vegetable varieties” and “the Resilient Gardener” are both awesome books that changed the way I garden forever!
Most of the Rodale stuff is good.
Good Bug, Bad Bug is one I’d like to get.
