One of the complaints, if you want to call them that, that I often make about garden writing is that it can be a very costly area of reporting.
I once wrote about daylilies. And I bought 30. I once wrote about garden clubs, went to their plant sales to interview members and purchased enough plants to require a whole new bed.
I wrote about turning your yard into a wildlife habitat, and it cost me a fortune.
So, when I interviewed Debra Lee Baldwin about her new book, Succulent Container Gardens, I had to have a succulent container garden.
Apparently, that happened to more gardeners than just me, because since she starting taking questions about succulents, Debra has been getting queries from Maui to Greece.
If you, like me, jumped on the bandwagon and planted succulents this year (the perfect year for it, considering the drought), but you still have plenty of questions, Debra may have all your answers.
And if you, like me, were completely unimpressed with the selection available at your local nursery, Debra has links for purchasing succulents, too.
Finally, if you are wondering what all the fuss is about, Debra's book is available at a discount at her site.
