Synopsis

This volume describes how to plan your garden to make the most of what you can't change - such as its aspect - and offers various designs to suit your site. All the basic techniques you might need to put your plans into practice are described and illustrated with step-by-step photographic sequences. These include hard landscaping techniques such as laying a patio, building a raised bed or creating a pond, establishing and looking after a lawn, and improving soil quality. Once the basics are in place, planting can begin. The book describes how to select plants that will thrive, how to plant them and care for them, and how to prune them and train them. Finally, the book looks at basic propagation techniques, and how to grow your own fruit, vegetables and herbs.
