Rise & Shine: Starting Seeds with Ease
For years we’ve been asked to demystify seed starting and here it is: Rise & Shine shares everything you need to start seeds successfully at home with 40 pages of easy-to-follow instructions and insightful tips for the novice and experienced grower alike.
"I've grown Fruition's seeds and starts for years but I've never had much success starting seeds indoors. Rise & Shine brought growing plants back into our lives and my children have loved caring for our seedlings right on our dining room table."
-Jessica (age 36), mother of Zoe (9) and Tristan (6)
Our hope for Rise & Shine is to save you time, money and heartache while sharing the joy, reward and extraordinary magic of starting your garden from seed.
