5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring.... 4 Dec 2007

By Dr. K. S. Chana

Format:Hardcover

Spent an hour flicking through the gardening section in my local Borders store trying to find ideas and advice for the bare patch of soil that is our new garden. This book was by far the most inspiring - lovely photos complementing great ideas, information and advice. The problem now is that I have too many ideas and too small a garden!
