Garden Through YR 2E

Gardening can seem like a mystery when you're new to it. In this fail-safe guide, BBC Gardeners' World writer Ian Spence tells us what to plant, prune, cut, and cover — and exactly when to do it. Organized by month, this book breaks down complex information into "things to do," "last chance" reminders, and "get ahead" tasks before recommending seasonal plants that will bring color to your plot, all while keeping one eye on the skies with a monthly "weather watch" panel and offering step-by-step instructions for new projects. Learn how to care for flowers, trees, fruits, and vegetables and maintain features such as ponds, willow fences, containers, bird boxes, and more. Pick up skills such as saving seeds, cutting and drying flowers, conserving water, weeding wisely, potting herbs, and gathering your harvest. Then plan for next year using the detailed directory of 350 plants. Author - Short: Spence, Ian Pages (actual): 352
