Gardens play an important part in our well being. A garden might serve as a tranquil retreat or private escape from the demands of everyday life. The beauty of plants can lift our mood, and pulling weeds can be a great release for stress. A bunch of colourful flowers or a trug of tasty vegetables provides a sense of achievement and feelings of success.

So it is no wonder that gardening is back in fashion, and particularly growing fruit and vegetables, even those who only have a window box are having a go at growing their own produce. The reason for this renewed interest is quite simple, people want to save money, reduce the carbon footprint of their food, have control over what chemicals have been in contact with their food and for the feel good factor that producing your own food gives.

In this book I have gathered together tips, snippets of information and advice that I have amassed over my years as a gardener. There is also a section on dividing perennials - plants for free.

The few pence that you have paid for this book can quickly be saved by implementing my money saving ideas. I do hope that you find the information informative and that it adds to the pleasure you can gain from gardening.

Kurzbeschreibung

What does history really consists of? Centuries of people quietly going about their daily business ? sleeping, eating, having sex, endeavouring to get comfortable.And where did all these normal activities take place? At home.This was the thought that inspired Bill Bryson to start a journey around the rooms of his own house, an 1851 Norfolk rectory, to consider how the ordinary things in life came to be. And what he discovered are surprising connections to anything from the Crystal Palace to the Eiffel Tower, from scurvy to body-snatching,from bedbugs to the Industrial Revolution, and just about everything else that has ever happened, resulting in one of the most entertaining and illuminating books ever written about the history of the way we live.
