No Problem Gardening: Simple, Realistic, More Enjoyable

No Problem Gardening: Simple, Realistic, More Enjoyable

I am very excited to announce the upcoming release of my new book, The Right-Size Flower Garden: Simplify Your Outdoor Space with Smart Design Solutions and Plant Choices (St. Lynn’s Press, February, 2015)

In this new book I reveal the keys to continue enjoying glorious gardens despite our aging bodies, hectic schedules and right-scaled gardens. In addition, I show you how to create environmentally friendly spaces using low-maintenance plants and designs that require less watering, fertilizers, pesticides and maintenance.

In the words of Ethne Clark, Garden Editor, Traditional Home, and Contributing Editor, House and Garden: “As a gardener whose garden is never quite big enough, I expect that Kerry Ann will instruct me how to squeeze in everything I could possibly want to grow, and not into heaving acres but into a garden that is just the right size – and in the case “right” means “manageable”.

Another nationally acclaimed gardening authority Dr. Steven Still Executive Director, The Perennial Plant Association and former professor of landscape horticulture at The Ohio State University said, “Kerry Mendez has over 25 years of professional and personal garden experience with special interest in low-maintenance gardening. Kerry is a garden author and lecturer who incorporates humor, abundant excitement, knowledge, and above all a passion for low-maintenance garden and landscape design. Kerry is the perfect author to approach the topic of right-sizing a garden to fit changing life-styles. In her new book Right-Size Flower garden: Simplify Your Outdoor Space with Smart Design Solutions and Plant Choices Kerry presents a step-by-step method to create a garden in balance with your lifestyle.

The Right-Size Flower Garden is full of beautiful four-color photos and detailed blueprints for more enjoyable and realistic “no chore” gardening. This book is a game-changer!

As Linda Moss, staff writer for The Record newspaper, wrote reporting on this timely gardening game-changer from the New Jersey Botanical Gardens (Ringwood) last spring: “Kerry Ann Mendez, a nationally known gardening expert and author, came to North Jersey on Sunday to tell aging baby boomers, apartment dwellers and busy young professionals how they can create luscious gardens with minimal muss and fuss, minus pain and strain.”  To read the article, click here.
