When is the best time to start planting a vegetable garden in the Pacific Northwest?
That would be now..
Crops that will germinate in the coolest soils (down to 40 degrees) include arugula, fava beans, kale, lettuce, pac choi, parsnips, peas, radicchio, radish and spinach seed.
With a soil temperature above 50 degrees, Chinese cabbage, leeks, onions, Swiss chard, and turnips can be planted.
When the soil warms to 60 degrees, warm season and many cool season vegetables can be sown, including beans, beets, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, carrots and cauliflower. But be forewarned – beans will not tolerate any frost and may have to be planted again if the temperature goes below freezing.
Wait until the soil warms to above 70 degrees to plant warm season vegetables including tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, cucumbers, squash, corn and melons. Tomatoes, eggplants and peppers are slow-growing and take many weeks to grow to the stage where you can plant them out In The Garden, so you might want to purchase these as starts from your local garden center. On the other hand, squash, cucumbers and corn grow quickly and are easier to start from seed.

Thoughts on Garden Design: Inspiration, Style, Structure, Colour, Planting $3.98 Throughout her gardening life, Marylyn Abbott has created, designed, and re-designed. With a painterly eye, she has re-imagined everything from herbaceous borders to classic potagers, filling beds with a single rich jewel-like color or sprinkling a vegetable garden with rainbow-hued tulips. Although her creations have often been likened to theater, their designs are firmly rooted in historic precedent and classical symmetry. Now, Abbott shares her thoughts on garden design, complementing practical advice with breathtaking photographs of her own gardens and those of others. Without forgetting the constraints of space, sunlight, soil, and climate, Abbott encourages gardeners to fulfill their horticultural fantasies. Whether as a treasure trove of some of the world’s great gardens, a history of design, or a source of inspiration, no lover of gardens should be without this essential work. Marylyn Abbott’s previous books include "Gardening with Light and Color." |

Planting Paradise: Cultivating the Garden, 1501-1900 $49.48 Beautifully illustrated, "Planting Paradise" charts the evolution of thinking about the cultivation of gardens from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries. In this age of discovery, when the world was being explored as never before, gardening itself took on new dimensions. The Renaissance belief in direct observation of nature offered an alternative way of thinking and inspired the scientific approach of the Enlightenment, and soon gardens were no longer just places of beauty, but also laboratories for scientific investigation. "Planting Paradise "reveals how the botanic gardens of early modern Europe were largely viewed as a means of supplying surgeons with medicines but by the seventeenth and eighteenth century the interest in gardens and cultivating exotic plants had spread to all levels of society. As global exploration took Europeans all over the world, gardens became a tapestry of many diverse botanical histories–some plants were native, some were introduced from foreign lands, and others were bred in the garden. "Planting Paradise "shows how the garden became a symbol of human interactions within the botanical world.

The Modern Japanese Garden Modern Japanese Garden $33.98 Japanese garden design, know to the West primarily in its traditional form, has undergone striking developments over the last decade. The Modern Japanese Garden is the first book to survey these contemporary Japanese gardens, presenting the designs in a way that is relevant to readers and their homes, whether it is in the East or West. Most of the locations have never been seen before in the West. In addition to important public gardens (such as that of the Tokyu Hotel Cerulean Tower, Shibuya) there are examples of some of the best modern domestic gardens. Among the more experimental gardens featured are a water garden with glass rocks; a mountain garden with flashing kinetic rods; a house with a vegetable roof garden; a rock plaza that pumps out mist; and a rock garden built inside a large inclined tube. With chapters exploring such themes as the influence on contemporary design of traditional Japanese cultural ideas, the miniaturization of landscape, sculpture, and texture, and the use by some garden designers of far more planting than was previously found in Japanese garden design, this inspirational book is required reading for all garden enthusiasts, especially those living in urban areas, as well as garden and landscape designers, and architects. |

Gang Chen takes you well beyond what you’ll learn in other books about basic principles like color, texture, and mass." -Jane Berger, Editor & Publisher of gardendesignonline "As a longtime consumer of gardening books, I am impressed with Gang Chen’s inclusion of new information on planting design theory for Chinese and Japanese gardens. Many gardening books discuss the beauty of Japanese gardens, and a few discuss the unique charms of Chinese gardens, but this one explains how Japanese and Chinese history, geography, and artistic traditions bear on the development of each country’s style.

The Rose Garden $26.48 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHAPTER II. ON LOCALITY AND SOILS; AND THE IMPEOVEMENT OE ADAPTATION OF SOILS FOE EOSE-CULTUEE. Ip we were called upon to select a spot as best suited for the cultivation of Eoses, we should seek one at a distance from large towns, that we might secure the advantages of a pure air. It should lie open to the south, and be so far removed from trees of every description, that their roots could not reach the soil of our Eose-beds, or their tops overpower us with shade, and prevent a free circulation of air. If, in addition to this, we could choose our soil, that preferred would be a strong loam; if rich, so much the better; if poor, we would enrich it by the addition of manures. It is generally known that the Dog-Eose delights in a stiff, holding soil; and it is on the Dog-Eoso the choice garden varieties are usually budded. We do not intend by this to recommend soils commonly termed clayey, for in such there is often too great a deficiency of vegetable substances; lighter soils, too, are found better suited for such kinds as thrive best grown on their own roots; but this may be managed by the addition of a little light turfy loam, peat, or leaf-mould, at the time of planting. An open, airy, situation, and a stiff loamy soil, are, we say, what we should prefer, were our choice of locality and soil unlimited. With these at our command, we should expect to carry Eose- culture to perfection. " But," says the amateur, " all gardens must have Eoses, and how few are there thus favourably circumstanced Many are close to large towns, where the air is rendered impure by the clouds of smoke constantly streaming into them. Others are of small size, and are often hemmed in by trees on all sides; on this with a neighbour’s favourite chestnuts; on that with a group of sombre-looking f… |

The Southern Kitchen Garden: Vegetables, Fruits, Herbs, and Flowers Essential for the Southern Cook $17.48 A kitchen garden, or "potager, " is a celebration of the seasons: brimming with vegetables, herbs, flowers, and even fruit trees, it’s our link with nature and a source for fresh produce. The kitchen garden has always been an important part of life in the rural south, at times meaning the difference between being well-fed or going to bed hungry. In recent times, the kitchen garden has become fashionable, and now more and more homeowners (in cities, suburbs, as well as the country) are reaping the delicious rewards of growing their own food. A kitchen garden needs little more than a small raised bed, so an aspiring gardener with only a modest backyard will have plenty of room to get started. Have a sprawling yard and an appetitie for an agricultural adventure? The kitchen gardener can try his hand at some produce requiring a little more space: fruit trees, corn, or pumpkins. Starting with location and soil preparation (where most gardens thrive or fail), authors William D. Adams and Thomas R. LeRoy will take you ste-by-step into the world of the southern kitchen garden. Planting guides for each fruit and vegetable, useful information on propogation and pest-control, recipes scattered throughout, and Adams’ own beautiful photography make "The Southern Kitchen Garden" truly essential reading for all gardeners ready to bring along their produce from seed to the supper table. |

The Edible Front Yard: The Mow-Less, Grow-More Plan for a Beautiful, Bountiful Garden $17.48 People everywhere are turning patches of soil into bountiful vegetable gardens, and each spring a new crop of beginners pick up trowels and plant seeds for the first time. They’re planting tomatoes in raised beds, runner beans in small plots, and strawberries in containers. But there is one place that has, until now, been woefully neglected – the front yard. And there’s good reason. The typical veggie garden, with its raised beds and plots, is not the most attractive type of garden, and favorite edible plants like tomatoes and cucumbers have a tendency to look a scraggily, even in their prime. But "The Edible Front Yard" isn’t about the typical veggie garden, and author Ivette Soler is passionate about putting edibles up front and creating edible gardens with curb appeal. Soler offers step-by-step instructions for converting all or part of a lawn into an edible paradise; specific guidelines for selecting and planting the most attractive edible plants; and design advice and plans for the best placement and for combining edibles with ornamentals in pleasing ways. Inspiring and accessible, "The Edible Front"" Yard" is a one-stop resource for a front-and-center edible garden that is both beautiful and bountiful year-round. |

Putnam’s Vegetable Book $18.48 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: asparagus, and this amount of space will require one hundred roots to plant it. An asparagus bed is a permanent investment and the plot should be planned with a view to keeping it in one location. When asparagus shoots become stringy, stop cutting the crowns and let the shoots go to seed. All dead tops should be removed in the fall and fertilizer should be applied between the rows. When growing asparagus from seed, sow the seed either in the spring or fall and tend the plants carefully. Transplant when two years old. BALM Balm seed should be sown thinly in rich earth, and the soil should be packed down firmly after the seed are in. Seed should be sown in the spring at the spot where the plants are to grow from year to year, as they will be self-perpetuating once they have gotten a good start. A liberal amount of water is necessary for balm if it is to grow luxuriantly, though it will thrive in somewhat dry soil. The plant grows to a height of about twenty inches. chapter{Section 4BASIL Sweet basil seed should be sown broadcast in the garden in the early spring, after the ground has been warmed and all danger of frost is over. If early plants are desired, it may be sown in the hotbed or indoors during March or April and successfully transplanted to the open a month later. Basil has much the same taste as cloves and is often substituted for them. If potted and kept in a warm sunny spot, it will yield throughout the winter. BEANS Beans thrive best in a rather warm, sandy loam, but are not difficult to raise on almost any kind of soil. The soil should not be too rich in nitrogenous matter or there will be an overabundance of foliage and stems and a yield of poor seed pods. Heavy clay is not well adapted to growing beans, as it bakes easily and prevents th… |
