Synopsis

Many gardens have acid soil. Tell-tale signs will be adjacent gardens, or the wider landscape, containing masses of healthy plants such as rhododendrons, camellias and heathers. But it will also mean that there is a large range of plants that cannot be easily grown. How can you identify which these are? Are there suitable alternatives? And what are the tricks to get the best from the soil you have? This helpful and attractive book identifies plants that are most suited to acid soils, and explains how to create a high quality garden when you have a low pH soil. Whether your soil is slightly acid or very acid, the practical advice given here will ensure you plant wisely, and help you to create the garden of your dreams.
