The information she provides gets just a bit repetitive here but this is still a good read. Easy to follow. Easy to use. ( )

a well written and informative book, a little to much to take in all at once for me. the beauty of a book like this is it sits on my bookshelf and gets picked up as a references when i start my planting in the garden and when i go to harvest for magical purposes

A lot of Ellen Dugan’s magick is done with plant materials, and she tries to grow a lot of it. Most people think of herbs when they think of magickal plants, but in this volume, she writes points out how many plants that frequently aren’t considered magickal can be used; trees, perennials, even groundcovers. She presents many lists of correspondences: flower colors, planetary, days of the week, and gods & goddesses as they related to the plants, allowing you to match the plant to the intent of your spell. She tells you how the moon relates to planting, and about the Victorian language of flowers. There is a section on crafting with plants, using them in seasonal celebrations, and, finally, how to set up a sacred space in your garden.

It’s a very useful garden book for the beginning garden/hedge witch. Dugan writes in a style that makes even a list of facts into a fast, easy read. ( )
