If
you think people are born with a green thumb, THINK
AGAIN!
I used
to have a brown thumb. I tried raising all sorts of
plants, and no matter what type of plant it was they
ALWAYS died!
I tried
planting rose bushes, and before the beauties could even
bloom the
bushes had become dried sticks without a touch of green.
I tried
planting corn, squash, beans and all sorts of vegetables
and my garden didn't even produce a single kernel. Not
even enough food to feed an ant. Believe me, I am
sure that the ants and bees were laughing their heads
off at me as they searched for food elsewhere. They sure
weren't finding anything to eat in MY YARD!
I figured
maybe because I was living in Georgia, where red clay
was a problem then I would try potted plants instead. I
tried flowers, and they died. A friend suggested that I
try growing a cactus, so I did, the cactus died.
HOW CAN YOU KILL A CACTUS???
Someone
else suggested that I try an Aloe Plant, because these
things were indestructible. A friend gave me an aloe
plant and the poor thing was dead within 3 months.
Needless to say my friends quit suggesting things for me
to grow. One even told me that if I got a fake
plastic plant, with my luck, it would probably die too!
I so
desperately wanted to see a little lively green plant
growing happily in my home. I wanted fresh vegetables
for my table. All I found instead was bad luck, wasted
money, and a lot of ceremonies where I would go outside,
and somberly say goodbye to yet another dead plant.
Then one day I discovered air
plants!
I was at a
craft show, and a lady there was selling air plants that
were OH SO BEAUTIFUL!
She said NO
ONE could kill these plants. She told me that all they
needed was to be hung in the bathroom, and the steam
from the shower would provide all the nutrients they
needed. NO DIRT! NO FERTILIZER! They needed nothing
except a moist environment that is provided in any
bathroom.
I was as
happy as an ant on a hill of honey when I got home with
my new plants. I purchased 3 beautiful air plants, hung
them neatly in my bathrooms and basked in the joy of
FINALLY seeing a thing of beauty growing in my home.
That is
until they died.
All three
of them, yes all three, died. Within a month they were
gone, dried up, dead, 3 more somber ceremonies.
So much for my green thumb.
By this
time even I myself was too scared to get a plastic
plant. It would probably dry out and die on me too
then I would probably have to
cut both of my thumbs off!
I gave up
on growing plants for years after that. The air plants
were my last attempt, and I had given up for good. I
swore to myself I would NEVER again try to grow another
plant for as long as I live.
Then one
day I was searching the internet for information about
knitting. I stumbled across a gardening forum where
ladies were knitting plant pot covers. One of the ladies
had a picture of the most beautiful tree I had ever seen
in my life! A dark red Japanese Maple tree that had a
breath taking beauty that I had never seen before in my
life.
I HAD to
have one!!
This tree
was so beautiful, I found myself craving one for my own
yard. I wanted one so badly that
I spent months researching Japanese Maples and how to
grow them successfully.
Japanese
Maples, I found, are very expensive. I wanted to learn
all I could about them before I purchased my own,
because I wanted to MAKE SURE that my Japanese Maple
would not die!
Yes, silly
me decided to try again, and this time not on a plant
that costs just a few dollars. I was getting brave and
preparing myself to try and grow a plant that costs over
$200 dollars for the large ones.
I read
forums, looked up gardening articles, and tried to find
as much information as I could about Japanese Maples
online.
Sadly, the
information I located dealt mostly with maintaining them
once they were already established and growing
successfully. I needed information on how to keep one
from DYING before it got established in my yard and
I could not locate this information ANYWHERE!
I checked
out books in the local library, and had no luck. I
searched for days, hours at a time, and could not find
the information I needed.
I decided
to look for older gardening books, and THAT is when my
search was over! I found a slew of old gardening books
written in the 1800's that answered EVERY question I
had about growing trees, fruits, vegetables and flowers
that I could dream of.
The
American Gardener is one of those books, and the main
one that helped me in learning everything I need to know
about growing any plant I can dream of under the sun!
The
American Gardner was written in 1854 by William Cobbett.
It is now in the public domain and has been converted
into electronic format for your enjoyment.
The American Gardener provides
over 150 pages of helpful gardening how to information,
and tips that will help you grow plants with ease
without them dying like they did on me!
Even if
you're a professional gardener, you'll find many tips to
help better your growing success!
Here's

growing plants. You'll find in depth information on
slope of your land, and what spot is best for

Use hawthorn trees and with a little love
and time you'll have a fence that will make your

how it can be beneficially to your household.

laboring with planting them only to find no
lovely sprouts growing where they were sowed.

proper methods for saving and preserving seed. I
find this the most fun of gardening! I now save seed
regularly and have a yard full of beautiful blooms
from seeds I have saved and sown.
- Learn
proper sowing methods to improve your seeds
germination rate, and to ensure healthy plants.
Proper spacing and depth can mean success or failure
in the garden!

they both bring!

Cultivating your garden properly and methods for
tilling, trenching and sowing to ensure your gardens
success.

plants form just one stock plant. Learn propagating

is a nice section on growing grapes in minimum space
while producing so many grapes that it'll make your
mouth water!

herbs, 26 tasty fruits and nuts and the most popular
flowers and shrubs with the most gorgeous blooms!
You are sure
to love the information, guidance and tips provided in
American Gardener!
I have used
this information for myself, and now have a yard full of
beautiful trees, flowers and plants instead of a mass
plant graveyard!
This type
of information has helped me in so many ways. I now have
5 rose bushes growing successfully in my yard including
the coveted Don Juan rose that now grows below a
beautiful catalpa tree.
This past
spring I planted a successful vegetable garden that
provided enough produce to feed 5 families for 2
months and provide many bags for our freezers! My
second fall garden was planted just last week and is
already sprouting many tiny plants for a second harvest.
All this was planted on a piece of plot that measures
not more than 20 feet by 40 feet!
I had so
many cucumbers growing that I could not even can them
all I had to give them away! My zucchini's were so huge
that they had to be shared with my in laws and my
mother, because we could not eat them as fast as they
grew.
My
flowerbed has lavender, dianthus, clematis, daisies and
many odd plants growing beautifully.
My verbena has taken over our
drive; it's outgrown its bed!
I now
have 2 Japanese Maples
growing successfully. One a glowing embers the other the
coveted bloodgood (the most beautiful tree on the planet
in my opinion).
I have
hundreds of boxwood that I propagated from cuttings,
growing successfully beside my cuttings beds. My Azaleas
are rooting successfully now, and
they are LIVING!
I have come
a long way from where I could not even keep an air plant
alive, the where I am now growing plants with no roots
in just a box of peat moss and sand!
My success is thanks to books like
