A must for gardeners everywhere Nichol's writing is humorous and sharp. His characters are well developed and hilarious. I own about 7 of his books and plan to buy more. These are the type of books you can read over and over again. Even if you are not a gardener I think you would enjoy the humor. Highly recommended.. "Building up the narrative" according to Ginny. This could rate Building up the narrative This could rate 3 1/2 stars but there is no way to so designate.

This is the last of the Down the Garden Path series. This book has a bit of a plot, so it takes a different tack than the two earlier books.

Nichols knows how to throw out a few zingers and reveal his true feelings with a good dose of sarcasm. “While the ostensible topics are houses and people, it is Nichols’ love of gardening, and the villagers who either encourage him or thwart him in its pursuit, that remains the lively theme through all the books.” —The Seattle Times “At first glance, the book might appear sweet and a little cute, but don’t be fooled
