The only pratical gardening book you'll ever need - straightforward and down-to-earth advice to help you get the most out of your garden

Richard Rosenfeld's lively guide gives you all the gardening basics you need, as well as being an entertaining read. His strict guidelines and no-nonsense tips will help you to:

Keep your soil in good shape and give your plants the right diet

Plant trees correctly and tackle overgrown ones
