PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Rosefiend Cordell (aka Melinda R. Cordell) has been a municipal horticulturist, and has worked as a greenhouse manager, a perennials czar, a landscaper laborer, and a landscape designer through her career, and she ran a public rose garden with over 300 roses (mostly antique roses). Now she writes books (it's easier on the back) about what she's learned over the years in gardening. The maple that she's posing with in her author photo is one she planted in the parks system in the late 1990s. Good times! Rosefiend Cordell is her gardening book pen name; she writes epic fantasy with dragons under her real name (you can read those as well, hint hint).
Genius Gardening Hacks contains a number and variety of short cuts and tips to make gardening a little less drudgery than it can sometimes be. For a new gardener, there is much to be found in the book. Based on my read, a seasoned gardener has likely discovered many of the hacks over the years. But even for the gardener with experience, there is likely to be something new in this collection of hints and ideas. Her comical style of her notes to self in her examples. I'd like to see more about following nature's calendar like the prune roses when the forsynthia blooms. Just a whole section of these would be so helpful.
