Awesome book5
This is a beautiful book! I got so many inspirations from it for my own gardens. This is definitely for the gardener who doesn't want the prim and proper perfect type garden. More rustic and user friendly. The photos are wonderful which is an absolute must for a book like this. Highly recommend.

Loved it5
So many great ideas in here, this is the book to read if you want to tear up the front lawn and make a beautiful veg garden, the veg gardens in here would rival any ones orimental garden. Lovely ideas for working with dwarf fruit trees for small spaces.

VEGETABLE GARDENING1
First class book but only for experienced vegetable growers who are looking to expand from an allotment to a stately home affordable enough to purchase during this property crash.
I would have been better off subscribing to a Vegetable/Kitchen Garden magazine as Iam wishing to start off with patio pots rather than dig up a lawn.
My fault I suppose
