Growing Food in the High Desert Country - Hardback

This book is a comprehensive gardening book for the high desert regions with emphasis on growing vegetables. It includes many tips to help the high desert dweller cope with the problems of raising plants in a dry land. From practical experience, the author learned that her familiar East Coast gardening techniques were not suitable to the high country so she developed the special methods given in this book. In addition to vegetables, she discusses various aspects of fruit tree culture in the high desert and drought-tolerant perennials, shrubs and trees. A special chapter on common garden pests tells how to control them without the use of commercial pesticides.
