Product Description

Review

Container gardening with a purpose: growing a crop. Admittedly the crop will be small, but with just a few patio pots or a window box, the smallest sort of allotment imaginable, you can still successfully cultivate tomatoes, lettuce, strawberries and other fruits and vegetables, many unusual or exotic. Susan Berry has written 10 gardening books, including three on container gardening, and the experience is evident in her clear and enthusiastic description of every aspect of miniature arable farming. This is a plant-by-plant guide with the emphasis on organic methods and detailed descriptions of every aspect of plant cultivation. There are recipes, too, and a section on culinary herbs, perhaps the most common version of kitchen container gardening. The photographs by Steven Wooster are superb.


The Daily Telegraph, June 15, 02

'..a highly persuasive book that will convince you to grow all sorts of fruit and veg in containers.'

4.0 out of 5 stars useful, 22 Jul 2006
It got me started on growing organic in contaciners, I always thought my garden was too small. It isn't the most comprehensive book, once you start having problems then you need to search elsewhere but inspirational in getting me started.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value
This is an excellent book both as a gardening book and also a cookery book. Information on both counts is clear and precise and the paintings are a delight. Very good value.
