Book Review: The Old Farmer's Almanac 2007 Gardening Calendar
Summary: 5 Stars
I find this calendar very useful.
It has very good information about gardening. At the end, it has an outdoor planting table that sgives the best dates and favorable moon for planting various fruits and vegetables.
It also has humorous notes concerning the moon (pink, full, wolf,snow, milk); special days [not funny](St. Patricks, May, Mothers, Valentine), and other reading matter.
The flower, fruit, and animal picures on each month are beautiful and the naration gives potential former and present uses (medicinal,beauty, etc..) or values.
The "Best Bets for Butterflies" gives us beneficial learning that will encourage butterflies into our yards and supply food for each stage; catepiller (larva), and adult (butterfly). That means nector from flowers for the adults and host plants for the catepiller. It even gives the particular host plant types for each group of butterfly catepiller (larva) discussed, which will draw the adult butterflies in to lay their eggs.
I enjoy the calendar very much.
