Tips for Successful Digital Photo Submissions

    • Include yourself in the picture!
    • Save your photos as high-quality JPGs. TIF and PSD files are fine too. Don't save as GIFs or indexed color, as they limit the color and make your garden less spectacular. We resize large images to 600 pixels wide and 72 dpi.
    • When naming your files, please don't use spaces, apostrophes, quotations, commas, or parentheses. For instance, Tom's Garden '02 (pansies).jpg is bad, but tomsgarden02_pansies.jpg is fine.
    • Try to send your images as an attachment. We cannot open fancier HTML emails with the images embedded.
    • Please do not send duplicates or resend your submissions.
    • We appreciate scanned or digital photos that have been oriented correctly (rightside up and not sideways).
    • Don't forget to include a description of the photos. We enjoy the stories behind your gardens!
    • Send your digital photos by email to: photos@burpee.com

Gardening Tip of the Day

  • How well soil drains is critical to gardening success. Here is an easy to follow method to evaluate your garden.

    1. Remove both ends of a large 48-ounce juice can.
    2. Dig a 4-inch-deep hole in the garden.
    3. Set the can in the hole and backfill around it with soil.
    4. Fill the can with water<BR>
    5. Check to see how much of the water has been absorbed after 1 hour.

    If the level drops about 2 inches, you’re in good shape. If the level drops more than 4 or 5 inches, you need to add organic matter (compost). If the level drops less than 1 inch, dig a pond or build raised beds. The soil has very poor drainage.
