Mit diesem Buch soll der Versuch unternommen werden, an die erfolgreichen kleinen Geschichten in »Us Herrn Pastoor sien Rad« anzuknüpfen. Anekdoten, die sich um das Leben auf dem flachen Lande im Allgemeinen und um ihre bekannten Protagonisten im Besonderen drehen. Vieles hat sich geändert, doch wir betrachten weiterhin die reifer gewordenen drallen Deerns, die Jungens, die inzwischen zur Schule gehen, und ein früherer ländlicher Vorort der Großstadt ist gleichberechtigt mit seinen Geschichten von nebenan in das schriftstellerischer Geschehen eingetreten. Aber es sind auch eine Reihe anderer Zutaten den Schnurren hinzugefügt worden wie Sprichwörter und Redensarten. Also allerhand von nebenan und umzu. Wechselweise wird alles in hoch- und niederdeutscher Sprache erzählt und dazu mit einer Prise Missingsch garniert.

Several concurrent trends have created the need for a new book on annual plants. One is the increasing popularity of container gardening, for which these plants are particularly suited. Another is the hottest trend in landscaping -- creating a bold, even jungly look through the use of tropical plants and other dramatic specimens, most grown as annuals in temperate zones. To meet the demand, growers have developed hundreds of new plants and improved cultivars of old favorites. In this Taylor's Guide, buyers will find more than five hundred of the latest, trendiest plants and the best cultivars of the beloved old standbys.

Describes over three hundred species and varieties of ground covers, vines, and grasses with tips on selecting the right plant for the right place and advice for both amateurs and professionals.

Offers advice on selecting, growing, and caring for shrubs and ornamental plants, and provides an identification guide to various species.

Each entry includes a photograph, description, common and scientific names and pronunciation, cultivation information, and a description of notable cultivars and similar species.
