I also wish they would show some real gardeners. Watching them take
perfectly grown greenhouse plants, seedlings, and popping them into
perfectly prepared earth, obviously the result of hours of labor, isn't
encouraging for the average person. Shades of Martha Stewart in her clean
chinos and loafers shoveling color coordinated layers into her compost.
