The Natural Garden by Rosamond Richardson-Gerson

This work sets out to connect with the public interest in gardening made so popular by TV programmes of the late 1990s. The age-old country wisdom of gardeners is an immense canon, a mixture of science and magic which is both enchanting and practical. This book looks at weather lore which was handed down by those on the high seas whose lives depended on getting it right, as well as on the experience of men who worked on the land and whose predictions were based on long experience. It covers advice on planting at different seasons of the year and at various stages of the lunar cycle. It also deals with garden pests, the art of natural composting, companion planting, and features full colour photographs throughout.
