This is a stellar adaptation of the bestselling gardening guidebook in the United States, which sold over two million copies. This version brings the same principles and techniques to the British audience. All information has been thoroughly converted to the metric system, and plant selections and seasonal considerations have been adjusted for British and Northern European climates. The language has also been Anglicized to communicate naturally with British gardeners, while retaining the "can-do" attitude that made the author a phenomenon in the US. This guide is particularly suited for beginner gardeners, those struggling with poor soil, or urban dwellers.
