Format:Hardcover
I bought this book as I'm a novice to greenhouse gardening. This book is a must for others like me. It is written in an easy to understand manner and is structured so that you can pick out the sections you want or need without having to wade through endless pages of the stuff you don't want - not that there are any pages in the book that are surplus to requirements! The illustrations and photographs are very helpful too. The author doesn't use jargon or techno speak beyond the understanding of beginners and manages to instill the belief that greenhouse gardening is quite achievable for anyone who wants to have a go. Full of tips on what you need and don't need to buy also. An excellent book overall.

I am very pleased with this book. Having bought my first greenhouse I needed something to cover the basics as well as a great overall book. It is exactly what it says in the title - and is the only book I will need on this subject. Excellent.

Very lush and beautiful photos but not very easy to work out the practicalities of gardening in a greenhouse. A bit too much of a coffee table book for me.

cup of tea and a sit down
A good useful book. But more of a sit down and read book rather than a dip in and out book.
