I got the feeling with Beautiful At All Seasons that she was just sticking all of these people into her book; they had no flesh and blood. Perhaps that was because they were just people who wrote her a few letters rather than those she actually knew? At any rate, this was a book I could easily skip, whereas The Little Bulbs, I read every winter. Don You’re smack-on about this book (or at least you and I exactly agree).

I've enjoyed reading this book not cover to cover, but topic by topic, spending time on the columns that interested me, breezing by the one's that didn't. I find passages throughout that get me thinking about my own garden. I think I have all of her books except for one, but I'm still working on reading them all. Thanks for joining in for the book club again!
