Review: Amazing book for a keen Gardner. A word of warning this book is very heavy and if you buying this for an elderly relative bear this in mind.

 

Author: Kassandra

Rating: 2

Review: The best I can say is that the big opus came in a closed box with a rope for better handling and not in a slip case. Such a bulky item asks for careful handling. Imagine what could happen when you let drop a weight of 5,3 kg on your feet. For practical use: forget it ! This one tome reference book is far too bulky for everyday use. And there is nothing in it that you and I have not already read in other books before. And even in more detailed and concise presentation ! For a beginner in gardening it is sheer information overload. For a seasoned gardener it is a silly attempt to bring all and everything together in one single edition. The editors celebrated themselves. Let's hold it here. But you can bring it as a present to a housewarming party if you feel obliged to spend the money.

    Description: A guide to keeping garden pests away organically. Get the best out of your outside space by calling on your garden 'friends'. Introducing helpful wildlife into your garden will help to control pests, maintain a natural chemical-free balance and encourage your garden to bloom, whether you have a large garden, an allotment or a simple window box. Some plants are great 'friends' and are endlessly useful - sweetpeas are good for regenerating tired soil, for example, while marigolds repel pesky greenfly away from your prized cabbages. Birds and other animals such as hedgehogs, bats and frogs are also renowned pest-munchers, while bees, butterflies and other insects will happily pollinate your flowers, fruit and vegetables. Encouraging just a few of these 'friends' into your garden will soon ensure your prized plants are blooming. This practical guide describes all of the wonderful wildlife that is helpful to have in your garden and how to spot them. Packed with hints and tips on how to encourage the critters into your space and make sure they stick around, this guide is a must-have for any gardener.
