Editorial Reviews
Book Description
One of the most satisfying experiences of gardening is growing-and eating-one's own fruits and vegetables. In this invaluable guide, garden expert Richard Bird shows you how to create a variety of delightfully decorative and productive plots. His 20 unique projects include planting a salad bed, designing a knot garden for herbs, adding vegetables to hanging pots, and planting fruit among flowers. The photographs by Jonathan Buckley will prompt you to dig out your garden tools and plant some edible delights. The 200 step-by-step color illustrations on fold-out pages, and at-a-glance materials and equipment lists make this a practical as well as inspirational workbook.
