Gardening Author Information

Diane Gibson: I have successfully completed the University of Illinois Master Gardener program. This BLOG contains my articles that have been previously published in the Galva News (Illinois.) Because it is a weekly and my articles are only inserted every other week, I decided to use the BLOG for information that is more timely, things that need more space to explain and to include pictures. Hope you enjoy. NOTE: Mention of commercial (wholesale/retail) venues does not mean my personal endorsement or guarantee of any kind. Although they may be used by me, you should always investigate your choices and those choices will be your responsibilty including in your gardens, your financial circumstances and your satisfaction levels.
