New Holland
$NZ19.95
SUBTITLED 'Over 300 A-Z
Tips for Kiwi Gardeners', this little guide is a gem for novices
(and more experienced gardeners) who want to achieve positive gardening
results without having to wade though a mass of technical books.
It's full of cost-cutting
ideas and time-saving tips on various aspects of gardening, including
how to sow seed, select garden plants, prune roses, outline new
garden beds, mow wet grass, eliminate pests and weeds and make cut
flowers last longer.
Not the prettiest book
on the shelf, it's the perfect "dip into" size to pop into the glovebox
of your car.
