The Gardener's Year

More about the book

The Gardener’s Year is not about quick fixes or design makeovers, but simply about knowing what you should be doing in your garden, when, and why. Month-by-month, Alan Titchmarsh tells you how to keep your garden looking its best, with sections on lawns, trees, shrubs and climbers, flowers, patios and containers, vegetables and herbs, fruit, greenhouses, and water gardens. Designed for easy reference, the book will answer all your questions, from what seeds you can plant in your vegetable plot in May to how to keep your hanging baskets stunning in September. Features include detailed plant directories, at-a-glance checklists of monthly tasks, creative projects, and 600 color photos and step-by-step diagrams.
