Bob Flowerdew's Complete Fruit Book by Bob Flowerdew

Bob Flowerdew is passionate about fruit - about growing your own and enjoying the bounty that is available to us - and this passion runs through his immensely practical book. This spread-by-spread reference work covers over 100 fruit and, for each one, Bob lists a range of species and varieties (providing lots of choice for the gardener), details its history, cultivation, propagation and harvesting, and then looks at its cosmetic, medicinal and culinary uses, with over 100 delicious recipes. Bob shares his practical knowledge and expertise from over 30 years of organic fruit growing, making this the definitive guide - perfect for cultivating nutritious and juicy varieties all year round in the backyard, garden and greenhouse.
Bob Flowerdew is Britain's leading organic gardener. For over a quarter of a century he has successfully grown almost every fruit and vegetable in his Norfolk garden to a size and quality rarely achieved by show exhibits, and all completely organically. He is a regular panellist on BBC Radio 4's Gardener's Question Time. His previous books include Grow your own, Eat your Own, Going Organic, The Gourmet Gardener, Bob Flowerdew's Organic Bible and The No-Work Garden.
