Product Description
Review
Whether you agree with Ground Force or not, the basis of the garden makeover programme is solid and has encouraged many thousands of people to pick up a trowel or spade and tidy up that mess outside their back or front door. Better a timber-decked or gravelled area than an overgrown tangle of weeds. Supported by Alan Tichmarsh's long broadcasting, horticultural and design career, Charlie Dimmock has been thrust into the limelight. She has brought not only her inimitable sparkly personality to our screens but her working nurserywoman's knowledge and water gardening experience. Mainly known for her inventive water features that pop up in every garden Ground Force do, she is also an accomplished plantswoman as this new Ground Force book shows. Packed full of ideas for both novices and more advanced gardeners, there are ideas for everyone and every situation. Charlie gives inspiration for containers of all shapes and sizes be they in the garden, on a windowsill or in a porch. Small water features inevitably make an appearance but this only underlines the versatility of container-gardening. Divided into seasons, the book ensures a colourful or interesting year-round display for your garden accompanied by detailed planting plans and, in some cases, construction techniques. Attractively illustrated and surprisingly well-written, this is a clear easy-to-use book perfectly complementing the ethos of Ground Force - accessible gardening available to all., easy to do and guaranteed results.
