"Gardeners' World" Vegetables for Small Gardens

by Lynda Brown (Author)

Synopsis

Moving away from the traditional kitchen-garden approach with rows and rows of vegetables, this book focuses on vegetables that are particularly suited to a small garden and easy to grow, and varieties which are full of flavour or expensive to buy. The aim is not self-sufficiency, but to complement shop-bought produce with what can be grown. The book shows how to grow and when to harvest vegetables such as chicory, endive, mangetout and courgettes, and what to do if you are starting from scratch - how to make a vegetable bed, sowing and cultivation tips, how to improve fertility and even how to cope with the special problems of growing vegetables in a small city garden.
