Twenty Reasons Not To Garden (And Why I Ignore Them All)

Too many innocent souls have stepped on the poorly-placed rake that is Gardening. If you picked up this book, chances are it's already too late for you. But if you haven't yet been smacked in the face, put down those gloves, take off the vest, and join horticulture commiserist Luke Ruggenberg as he ticks off twenty hilarious reasons to get out of the garden while you still can. In this collection of garden humor you can suffer the existential angst of the perfect pruners, hop in a limo as paparazzi hound the celebrity gardener, try your best to “Name ... That ... Plant!”, endure a slapstick visitation from the dreaded Green Reaper, or take a trip to the gardeners-only Emergency Room. Discover just how bad an idea playing with plants really is ... and why one man does it anyway.
