Edible gardens

Book - 2011

This volume is a brief encyclopedia of edible plants, offering colorful profiles highlighting each plant's ornamental attributes, origins, use as food, and cultivation requirements. A portfolio of garden designs -- including a home orchard, traditional kitchen gardens, children's garden, container gardens, and school garden -- provides inspiration for home and professional gardeners alike. Additional information on organic care and sustainable techniques (slow gardening, permaculture, building soil) completes this hands-on guide.
