GROWING FROM SEED - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This is a fully comprehensive guide to please even the most thorough grower. Beginning with an overview of the nature of seeds, including how they are pollinated and fertilized, Jekka McVicar, drawing on her extensive experience of her own herb farm outside Bristol, describes each seed, when and how to harvest, sort and store. Once the foundation is laid the main scope of the book begins, how does one grow specific plants from seeds? Aided by practical growing instructions and complemented by "plant recipes" it covers over 500 genera, and many more species and cultivars in practical and extensive detail. Alpines, annuals, aquatic plants, trees, herbs and cacti are just a few of the many categories of plants discussed with helpful cross-referencing and photography to spur the reader into action.
