商品簡介
A Garden for All Seasons is the essential gardener's companion. Dr. Stefan Buczacki, the expert gardening writer and broadcaster, takes you through each season in turn, charting the natural changes and providing not only a unique source of practical advice but also a rich fund of inspiration. By carrying out the right task at the right time in the right way you will save time and ensure that your plants grow well from the start.
Each season opens with fascinating notes about the natural life of the garden at that time of year and the role of such factors as weather, day length, pests or diseases and rainfall. This section provides an invaluable basis for planting and garden maintenance.
A Garden for All Seasons then helps you to plan your garden so that it is filled with interest every day of the year. Each part of the garden is examined in each season with practical planning and planting suggestions for everything from herbaceous borders and containers to vegetable and fruit gardens. Many specially commissioned photographs show how well particular planting schemes can work through more than one season. The final section of each season is a ready-reference guide, with many clearly illustrated techniques, to the practical tasks that need to be undertaken in the garden at certain times of the year.
With A Garden for All Seasons Dr. Stefan Buczacki has put together the perfect combination of down-to-earth practical advice and inspiring ideas, beautifully illustrated throughout, that will bring garden and gardener closer together and make it possible for you to create a garden that will give pleasure through every season.
