She lists a wide variety of vegetables, fruit and nut trees, and herbs and their companion plants. I found it to be a quick read because it is so well laid out. She includes a few garden plans and a glossary of gardening terms/techniques at the back. The garden plans are pretty rough and are hard to read, but they help you kind of get an idea of how to start planning your own. I think this book is a great companion to the square foot gardening book by Mel Bartholomew.

The SFG talks about how to organize your plants and all the basics you need to know about gardening, and CLT talks about which plants pair well together. I think I may buy CLT next time I get a coupon from Barnes and Noble, but for now I took notes in my garden journal.
As a side note, my ginger growing experiment didn't work. I got distracted last semester and didn't pay attention to the soil dampness and it got dried out a few too many times. May be I'll try it again next winter!
Cheers!
Katie :)
