Foolproof planting : [electronic resource] how to successfully start and propagate more than 250 vegetables, flowers, trees, and shrubs / by Anne Moyer Halpin and the editors of Rodale Press.

"A Roundtable Press book."

"Getting plants off to a good start is probably the single most important step in gardening. The success of this book lies in its sole focus on this aspect of gardening. Halpin describes plant reproduction in easy-to-understand terms, with general explanations of starting plants from seeds, using transplants, and propagating plants by cuttings, layering, dividing, and grafting. Specific instructions for most common plants, including trees, shrubs, and flowers are provided. Most libraries will find this to be a useful tool for answering questions about how, when, and where to plant materials." --Library Journal.

"A alphabetical handbook of more than 250 popular yard and garden plants features easy-to-follow instructions for a variety of propagation techniques, including grafting, rooting, budding, root division, and seed starting." --Amazon.com
