Every year in the UK we spend a fortune on plants for our gardens. So looking after them has to be a good idea. This book shows the gardener how to make sure that the shiny perfect plant they brought home from the garden centre stays that way in their own garden. The fact is that healthy plants resist pests and disease and harsh conditions, so treating them correctly is a major issue. Here we cover the fundamental conditions needed for plant health including soil, position, climate conditions and maintenance. Healthy Plants also covers issues of feeding, transplanting, pruning, potting and protecting from pests and diseases. All without using chemicals. Healthy Plants is endorsed by the HDRA and the Soil Association, so you know you can trust all the organic advice.
