It seems to have been a happy Christmas season for most garden retailers, despite a falling stock market and a burgeoning on-line business. The spending patterns of the American consumer for 2015's Christmas reflected the greater changes seen through the year by the independent garden retailers that we know. Average spend per customer in Nov/Dec was up on the previous year by a range of 2% to 12%, while the favorable weather across much of the country drove customer count up by an even higher range for the majority.

Several years ago, I was given as a gift a remote session with a bibliotherapist at the London headquarters of the School of Life, which offers innovative courses to help people deal with the daily emotional challenges of existence. I have to admit that at first I didn't really like the idea of being given a reading "prescription." But the session was a gift, and I found myself unexpectedly enjoying the initial questionnaire about my reading habits.

Remember e-books? Those were the days, weren't they? Those crazy few years when the fad of reading on a Kindle swept the nation. Now, of course, that fit of mass hysteria is behind us. E-book sales are falling, down more than 10% in 2015 — YA down 44%! — while used bookstores are coming back. Yes, that's right; print is regaining its regal primacy; e-books are dead. Right?

Less than a year after Verizon purchased the sprawling company, the brand is mulling a name change because people still associate its legacy image with email addresses and dial-up Internet, rather than a robust tech and media company it's trying to morph into.
