 THE BEDSIDE BOOK OF THE GARDEN. Dr. D.G. Hessayon.

Here is a book that will not send you outside, or reaching for gloves and boots. Here is a book to settle back and enjoy, filled with the wonderful features and the fascination of our favourite national pastime. In these pages you will discover gardens you may never see, plants you may never grow and people you will never meet. But each one has its own special story, casts its own enchantment, and has lessons to teach all of us who love our gardens.

And if its difficult for you to read about a world of plants, places and gardening lore without longing to get up to do something, here are all sorts of 'garden' ideas to do indoors, from making wine to windowsill allotments

Including myriad surprising facts, folklore and favourite sayings, THE BEDSIDE BOOK OF THE GARDEN might not make you a better gardener, but it cannot fail to open your eyes to the magic of the garden.
