A comprehensive and highly practical study of the art of growing flowers, Mastering the Art of Flower Gardening presents expert tips on growing both annuals and biennials (including native and heirloom species) alongside hundreds of lush photographs.

This gorgeously illustrated book by Matt Mattus is based on decades of first-hand experience in his own garden and greenhouse made popular on his blog Growing with Plants. Every variety or species presented is one that he has personally trialed and grown. Mattus sets you up for success by providing everything you need to know about starting seeds, soil, sowing, hardening off, to transplanting, and growing on. Then, in the following chapters, you'll find tips for growing over 100 different annuals from seed and many summer bulbs, vines like wisteria and even blooming shrubs like lilacs. Every flower includes detailed information based on his hands-on experience, going beyond the information typically available on the seed packet or a nursery tag.

Learn details and cultural facts that will help you grow better flowers while introducing you to many more. You'll find tips for topics like how to grow challenging annual poppies and biennials from seedand forcing flowers for winter blooms. Just a small selection of the flowers covered: heirloom and exhibition chrysanthemums, larkspurs and annual poppies, delphiniums, peonies, lilacs and wisteria. Bulbs include spring and summer bulbs such as anemone, ranunculus, tulips, lilies, gladiolus, and cut flower dahlias, while winter indoor bulbs cover every aspect of forcing bulbs indoors like narcissus, amaryllis, South African bulbs--and even how to force Lily of the Valley.

In short, there is nothing ordinary about this book--it is unlike any other cut flower book you will find.

Just what I was looking for to slow my large dog while eating
Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler, Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler
I needed something for my 50-pound dog to slow down her eating. The usual slow-feeder bowls and mats weren't really slowing her down much and I wanted her to have to think a little bit. She's not smart enough for puzzles though. So I got this kibble dispensing toy. My dog is not a chewer so I don't have to worry about her destroying it. LOVE: holds a little more than a cup of kibble, dispenses different sized kibbles, heavy weight so it wobbled around a lot without going too far away, QUIET- I couldn't bear the noise of hard plastic dispensers clacking around and this one is very quiet on our hardwood floors, kept the dog busy for at least 20 minutes. It's really all I was hoping it would be. And, well, as you can see in the video, the cat is happy about it too... As with all of these dispensers, there will be a couple of kibbles left inside that are hard to get out. But that gave my dog something to do overnight. She spent a long time getting that last kibble out. The slight scent they add to the natural rubber is not a problem at all. This dispenser is absolutely worth the money, it's going to last us a very, very long time.

People are doin it wrong
Size: 1 Pack, Style: Cone
Cheap and durable and huge. The bad reviews are from people who aren’t using it right. Step 1) plug hole with a smear of peanut butter. 2) put a low calorie but appetizing mix of whatever you want: yogurt, pate, pumpkin puree, blended with frozen veggies on the walls 3) freeze cone for 30 mins. Hole will be sufficiently plugged to add liquid. 4) fill the rest with water or bone broth and freeze overnight to make it a changing ice block.

Goldilocks of dog toys!
We recently rescued a small/medium bulldog breed (35lbs) and she *loves* toys. Problem was that our other dog's (75lbs) toys were too big. They literally were the size of her. We found that our new baby pooch was constantly raiding our cat's bed with the cat toys. They were more her size and she knew it. I bought her some cat toys (mostly mice with catnip inside and a yarn tail). She *loved* them, but they were too small. She would choke on them and I would literally have to pull them out of her throat by the mouse tail. Scared us too much so we gave (all 20) away to a friend. I scoured Amazon and found these whimsical toys and they are *JUST RIGHT*! Perfect size, have held up several days of chewing and gnawing, squeak pretty well, and my big dog also loves them! These deserve the 4.9 (5.0 but can't please everyone) rating that lead me to purchase them in the first place. Buy with confidence for your medium size (or any size really) fur baby!

Super Cute!!
These adorable toys are incredibly cute! My 9-week-old puppy absolutely loves them. There are so many different options that I can easily rotate them to keep him entertained and prevent boredom. So far, they have held up well against his teething, and I've even needed to wash a few of them in my washing machine due to potty training. They are perfect for small dogs and puppies and offer great value for the price.
