Garden Wisdom by Jenny Hendy
With evocative images and brimming with advice, this guide presents traditional, tried and tested methods for your garden or plot. The flower garden, the herb garden, the orchard and vegetable plot are all looked at in turn with in-depth suggestions for planning and planting old-fashioned varieties, as well as how to maintain the garden the old-fashioned way. Among the many hints and tips you will find time-honoured methods such as planting by the moon, and companion planting, where certain plants benefit from being planted in close proximity to each other. There are projects as well: how to make plant markers or cat scarers for the vegetable garden or making the most of gluts of fruit from the orchard with recipes for preserves or fruit pies.
Jenny Hendy is an author, researcher and TV presenter specializing in botany. She is the author of several gardening books and has written for among others, Gardening Which? Magazine.
