Synopsis

"Small Gardens And How To Make The Most Of Them" is a vintage guide to gardening designed for people with restricted space for their plants and flowers. It offers the reader information on what the best plants for smallholdings are, with details on when and where to plant, propagation, hybrids, planting, cutting, and much more. This guide contains a wealth of timeless information and is perfect for the modern green-fingered enthusiasts with limited space. Contents include: "The General Arrangement of the Garden", "Lawn, Paths, Beds, and Border", "On the Duty of Making Experiments", "Some Neglected but Handsome Plants", "The Conservator and Greenhouse", "The Tool Shed and Summer-House", "Roses for Amateurs", "Enemies of the Garden", "The Rockery", "Trees, Shrubs, and How to Treat Them", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.
