  Edited by Stefan Buczacki, best known for his appearances on Radio 4's Gardeners' Question Time , this handbook picks up on the essentials that all gardeners need to know to make better, more beautiful gardens. These include advice on choosing plants, how to grow and look after them, with ideas for planting plans, especially for difficult areas. Special emphasis is placed on organic and green gardening techniques, and on encouraging butterflies and other natural pollinators into the garden. The book also includes advice on container gardening, from hanging baskets and patio tubs to gro-bags.
