I returned the calendar and from now on will stick with the real thing and not waste my money. The planting info is so general that it too is useless. Considering the description of this calendar, I was expecting lots of good information like the Farmer's Almanac. I opened it and found nothing but illustrations (which are never as good as a picture of the real thing) and useless info like Ben Franklin's birthday.
Very pretty with cute little tidbits of gardening related info. I buy a bunch of people one every year.
I have been getting this calendar from Farmer's Almanac for years and each year it keeps me at my appointments along with giving me informative facts about the world of gardening.
I highly recommend it for any gardener in your life. She was bouncing out of her socks - the perfect present. I bought the Old Farmer's Almanac gardening calendar (and the OFA too). as a Christmas present to my sister who is a Master Gardener in Iowa.
They make a great gift for our garden-loving friends, too. It is a good price, fits perfectly on my kitchen wall, and also provides me with folk wisdom and a good recipe every once in awhile. Charming. I love these calendars; they are full of good advice and wonderful illustrations of fruits, vegetables, and flowers suitable for each month and season. If you are a gardener or love gardens; you cannot be without this helpful little calendar.
