Recent paintings on panel
after the killing frost
reverting to the original dull purple
invaluable condensed encyclopedia
this is a mistake
fill the excavation three quarters full
continue cutting of fall withered flowers
the latest cultural ideas
it is a rare privilege to select the preferred colors
stake the late bloomers
remove and burn dead stalks
one cubic foot of good soil is all that is required
do not allow the roots to lie exposed to the hot sun or to the cold
in the average garden simplicity should prevail
