This beautiful and hardworking spiral-bound journal for gardeners is waterproof and offers space for years of noting progress and thoughts about their gardens.

Gardeners take note! Finally there is a place to keep track of what you do (and when) and what happens (and doesn't happen) in your garden. This waterproof log book is the perfect place for recording your work in the garden: from building catalogue wish lists early in the year, to noting the first signs of spring, when your lilies first appear, to tracking what vegetable crops were planted where and what they yielded, to documenting bulb planting in the fall and putting the garden to bed for the winter. A five year grid at the beginning of each month offers space to note annual garden cycles over time, and journal entry pages are lined for notes or graphed for diagramming plantings. A zone map of North America with average temperature ranges is included, and an extensive backmatter section offers advice on container gardening, dealing with common pests and diseases, composting, and pruning. A comprehensive list of useful resources provides ways to answer the most thorny gardening questions. Whether you tend a window box, a cutting garden, or many raised vegetable beds, this is the perfect write-in companion to your gardening.

This weatherproof five-year log book includes the following features:

1. Sturdy waterproof cover to protect pages from rain and muddy soil

2. Lined pages and gridded paper for plotting beds

3. Five years of 12-month bloom and harvest grids for recording what you planted and when

4. Authoritative appendices on composting, pruning, pest and disease control, and container gardening
