The First-time Gardener: Everything the Beginner Needs to Know to Create, Maintain and Enjoy a Garden

by JonathanEdwards (Author)

Synopsis

The ideal handbook for the gardening novice, The Virgin Gardener highlights the easiest-to-master and most effective planting and maintenance techniques. Presented in the clearest, most straightforward manner - so the reader is never left in any doubt about what to do next - if anything - the gardening information covers all the basics - from cutting the lawn and choosing and planting flowers and bulbs to pruning trees and shrubs. Following the fortunes of two virgin gardeners - one with a bare plot, the other with an established, though overgrown, garden - the reader is taken a step at a time down the path of successful gardening. A friendly, reassuring book, The Virgin Gardener takes the mystique out of gardening and puts the fun and satisfaction back in.
