The New Kitchen Garden - Hardcover

The freshness, flavour and rich diversity of home-grown fruit, vegetables and herbs, compared with commercially grown produce, is by no means the only reward for the kitchen gardener. There is a wealth of ways in which vegetables, fruit and herbs can be used decoratively in the garden, mixed among flowers and shrubs or in formal planting designs. This book not only provides a complete practical guide to kitchen garden cultivation techniques, but also shows how fruit and vegetables can have aesthetic purpose in the garden. There is also a comprehensive guide to growing over 100 vegetables, fruits and herbs, with photographs and easy-reference charts.
