TROWEL AND ERROR collects all of her homespun garden advice into an inviting, environmentally friendly, whimsically illustrated yet dead-on helpful book that will benefit every gardener, beginner or experienced. Cure plant viruses with sour milk. Steep a natural and effective insecticide out of fresh basis. Place flat stones under squash or melons to hasten ripening.
