A Maddening Endeavor
Perennials behaving like annuals, dead and gone after just one season. Neighbors' tomatoes that always come in a week earlier than yours. Fickleness, hard work, and ethical dilemmas (you've live-trapped the woodchuck-now what?). It's gardening, Abby Adams loves, it, and in a book as perceptive as it is funny she shares a lifetime's obsessions with its mysterious ways.
