Regardless of whether you're tending an in-ground plot, a small container garden, or a series of raised beds, Southwest Fruit & Vegetable Gardening is an invaluable resource. You'll find:

  • Detailed profiles of over 60 edible plants that thrive in the region's distinctive growing conditions, including favorites like tomatoes, sweet potatoes, summer squash, hot peppers, and pomegranates--plus popular herbs
  • Information on soil preparation, starting seeds, fertilizer tips, and more
  • Techniques for safely managing the Southwest's most troublesome vegetable garden pests
  • Helpful planting tips to keep you on track
