Top 12 Gardening Tips from 2007
With 2007 behind us it appears that a quick summary of gardening tips that were posted last year is definitely in order. So, I thought that finding the Top 12 posts from '07 might not be a bad place to start.
But...limiting it to only 12 is almost completely impossible, so rather I have listed them by the top few in each month.January

Stuart thanks for this. As a fledgling gardener I am sure that I will be making use of many of these great articles. In particular the paper jiffy pots that I have also seen published elsewhere.

Stuart,
You have a wealth of information in this post. Some great ideas! I have to say I loved one thing you said in your post "5 Reasons why it's bad to covet your neighbour's garden." You said "If God had wanted us to all have the same gardens He wouldn't have bothered giving us millions of plants. He could have just come up with the Home Depot range." Very true!
Thanks for stopping by my site!
