## Description

Martha's Spring Gardening is a practical video reference guide to spring gardening filled with inspirational footage of Martha Stewart's Westport, Connecticut gardens and 374-minutes of solid garden expertise. Offering tidbits of history and helpful hints every step of the way, Martha Stewart accomplishes every imaginable garden task with ease. She begins with a look at early season weeding, bed preparation, seed starting, self-sowing annuals, and planting everything from primroses to vegetables and herb gardens. Readily admitting that the optimum garden layout is a very personal vision that continually evolves, Martha shares some of her favorite plants and garden planning tips. Once her vegetable and herb gardens are planted, Martha heads to the kitchen to detail the preparation of dishes like fresh asparagus and fontina bruchetta, mache salad, rhubarb crisp, and an impressive spring garden cake decorated with marzipan vegetables. After touring famous gardens like the Brooklyn Botanical Garden and the Keukenhof Bulb Garden in Holland, Martha and several leading garden experts delve into some of the less glamorous aspects of gardening. They offer recipes for five basic types of potting soils; take an in-depth look at pruning tools, rakes, and other gardening tools and how to care for them; describe how to choose and care for clay pots; test soil; and even tune up a lawnmower. Martha and her crew also focus in on houseplants, discussing re-potting, choosing and caring for fragrant and unusual houseplants, container gardening, creating indoor parterres, transporting plants, and the art of flower arranging. Bonus features include more helpful tips and techniques and additional video of garden tours. This excellent spring gardening guide details exactly what needs to be done in the springtime garden and clearly demonstrates how to accomplish each task. --Tami Horiuchi Whether they're potting their first plant or maintaining acres of landscaped gardens, Martha offers consumers her finest techniques to help create the garden of their dreams. Learn the basics of garden design, planting from seed, and preparing potting mix at home. Follow Martha indoors and learn how to cook fabulous dishes using ingredients fresh from the garden. And watch as Martha demonstrates her best tips and techniques for maintaining the garden and its tools. It's an indispensable collection of valuable pointers organized on two easy-to-navigate discs that will be useful all year long.

Review: Very helpful and relaxing to watch. - I've always loved Martha Stewart's ideas and shoes. This is a great way to learn the basics...and relax at tbe same time....the visual is so relaxing. Good purchase.
Review: Martha goes out of her way to make things difficult - Found this at my library, and saw that it had printable recipes and tips, which, after you watch the segments once or twice, are far more useful to access than the segments. Martha (and her guests) can get a bit long-winded at times, even though the information is good. However, just like her website, where you can't seem to navigate to anything directly, she has chosen to make things as difficult as possible, by using some special program that interacts with her website, instead of having the printable items being accessed through Adobe files, as MOST other DVDs are set up to do. You cannot use these DVDs in a CD-ROM. While this is disclosed on the package, as is the need for the special program (of course requiring an internet connection), it is in very tiny print. Seriously, how many times are you going to be watching the bonus material as opposed to simply using the printout material? Also, since this is going to another website, what about privacy concerns with the interactive software? If you don't want to install the software, take really good notes while watching these on the TV, remote in hand. With these limitations, it is definitely NOT worth the new price, even with the desertcart discount. Too bad, too, because it is a pretty decent collection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good spring gardening reference guide
*by T***I on March 22, 2006*

This is another one of the wonderful DVD's that Martha has been creating to help us take care of the home; except this time it's on the outside. She has obviously started with the first season of the year and as always, it's the one that gives us the greatest joy of all that is hopeful and ready to burst with anticipation of what is to come! Spring! Ah, my heart begins to beat again after that dormant winter! Martha gives us a 2-disc set along with printable instructions for those who like having something in hand to guide us along as we wake up our gardens. The are as such: Disc One PLANTING: dividing hellebores/ early spring fertilizers/planting primroses, lilies, clematis, sweetpeas/ etc. ANNUALS: self-sowing annuals/ early season weeding/ etc. SEEDS: seed-starting tips/ seed test/ seed compost/ etc. VEGETABLES: staking peas/ sowing leeks/ edible peas/ etc. COOKING FROM THE GARDEN: Fontina and asparagus bruschetta/ spring garden cake/ rhubarb crisp/ etc. TOOLS: pruning tools/ 5 essential garden tools/ lopper 101/ etc GARDEN TOURS: Gerbera daisies/ Hellebores/ Brooklyn Botanic Garden/ Keukenhof bulb garden/ diversity of orchids/ Japanese stroll garden Disc Two POTTING: potting mix glossary/ potting dahlia's/ succulent pots/ repotting plants/ etc INDOOR GARDENING: houseplant tune-up/ terrariums/ fragrant houseplants/ indoor parterre/ etc GARDEN MAINTENANCE: spring garden clean-up/ lawn garden clean-up/ garden tool care/ etc SPECIAL FEATURES: garden design 101/ Skylands tour/ 14 tips and techniques/ printable instructions/ etc The segments are from her former TV show several years back to more recent years. As usual, the film transfer to DVD is superb and the colors are so vivid that you want to run right out and start working. In the segments for "Arranging", the opening for "seasonal alliums" is just exquisite with deep and lighter shades of purple so perfect, crisp, and clear, that it made me put this flower on my top ten list for this years planting. Some of the segments are rather short (as in the "early spring fertilizer") but others are wonderfully extended enough to teach you what you need to know. In all fairness, I do have a criticism with the price, in that I feel that it is way over the amount that this DVD was worth, even with the Amazon discount. And since I am assuming that the remaining 3 seasons will be out eventually, it makes for a rather stiff price in the end. But if you are a die-hard fan, then sit back with pen and pencil in hand, and prepare yourself to start planning your garden.
