Do you have a love/hate relationship with your garden?

 

 

Is gardening an exercise in futility for you?

 

 

Do you feel like you just throw your money away on plants, year after year?

 

   

Then let us help you become a successful gardener in spite of yourself!

  

 

Dear gardening friend,

  

If you want the answers -- and help -- to the above questions, then have we got the book for you! Connie and Tracy know what it's like to not "get" gardening.  

   

We discuss the BIG CONCEPTS behind gardening that you may never have grasped.

 

We love talking about this topic that nobody teaches in school. We don't want you to continue repeating the same mistakes year after year.

   

Tracy feels so lucky -- she was a Pitiful Gardener who met her gardening "angel," Connie.

 

The result was a humorous, but very helpful gardening book. In The Pitiful Gardener's Handbook: Successful Gardening in Spite of Yourself we give you the gardening tips that make a real difference for this specific niche of gardeners. 


This home garden guide is written for the those who feel like there are two types of gardeners in this world: brown thumbs and green thumbs.



Brown thumbs and green thumbs. The book is written for the first group to become the second group, if they want to. 

 


For less than the price of a nice potted plant, gain the insight you need to become a more successful gardener!



Mother Nature always wins, unless you know how to outwit Her!

     We've got a blog that will help you out

     

     

    You want current advice. While our book focuses on you, and how you personally go about gardening, the blog provides  general advice. You can ask questions. We've thought about doing a newsletter, but the blog functions in much the same way.
