Great for amateurs or experienced gardeners!
This book is fantastic! I am an experienced gardener and I found new information. Broken up into chapters and sections for veggies and herbs-soil tips-some companion gardening-pests and diseases. Color photos and easy read. Quick for references. I have now ordered 2 other books in the series. Great book if you are just getting started or just want a reference book.

Best Book for Beginners
Love this book! Five stars. Two thumbs up. All the good things. Recommend to EVERYONE!! I finished my second year of gardening and I wish I’d had this book two years ago! It covers a little bit of everything without going so in depth it's overwhelming, and without glazing over it leaving you frustrated and more confused. The charts make it automatically worth the buy. It has companion planting, pH and water needs for each plant, frost dates, and tons of others. It has lots of pages for you to write in the book for notes (which I won’t do because that’s sacrilege, but they are good ideas for pages in my garden binder). Each veggie has about three pages dedicated to it. Planting, Care, Pests/Diseases, Harvest/Storage are covered. Plus recommended varieties, general info and tips (like rosemary will deter Mexican bean beetles). It covers fertilizing, troubleshooting and so many helpful things, specific to a certain veggie. It also has amusing quotes at the start of every chapter. I really can’t say enough wonderful things about it. This is my absolute favorite gardening book and I think it should be on everyone’s shelf. Definitely the perfect Christmas gift for the gardener in the family!
