Angelina County Master Gardener, Elaine Cameron, wrote “Tried & True Gardening Wisdom” and hopes it will help readers discover their green thumbs.
The book features local gardeners and what they have done with their gardens at their homes, including tips for how readers can do the same.
Cameron shares tips from 17 local gardeners, including a lady’s “pollinator garden” of native plants and another’s garden for birds surrounded by woods. One man even shares how he grows tropical citrus fruits around his swimming pool.
In the book, Cameron also shares tips from several landscape designers and a collector of petrified wood.
