Most of us THINK we'll remember what we've done or seen in our garden, but the reality is often quite the opposite.

  • Many gardeners find that the biggest obstacle to improving their gardening skills is having a deep understanding of what works and doesn't work in their particular yard. Remembering details and patterns in our individual garden gives us the wisdom to take appropriate action and time our activities perfectly.

  • How valuable would it be to remember when the average frost date for your yard occurs so you can better time when to plant out your vegetables?

  • Would you save money if you knew which varieties of annuals performed the best and remember its name the following year so you bought the right one?

  • Could you increase the harvest from your garden if you remembered how you handled the pest problem on your tomato plants last time so you addressed it sooner and with more confidence?

  • Would the number of flowers on your perennials increase if you knew which ones needed deadheading?

  • A garden journal will solve confidence and memory challenges while saving you time and reminding you how to avoid past mistakes.
