The Well-Tempered Garden : The Timeless Classic That No Gardener Should be without

This is a classic work by a gardener who combines a passionate love of his subject with a critical intelligence and a good helping of wit. The Well-Tempered Garden is packed with the sort of information keen gardeners crave - from planting, weeding and the pleasures of propagation to annuals, water lilies and vegetables. Hailed as a masterpiece when it was first published, The Well-Tempered Garden is as fresh, enlightening and necessary for gardeners in the 21st century as it was when it first appeared more than 40 years ago.
