Synopsis
What is more relaxing than to admire the beauties of nature? But not everyone is fortunate enough to live in the country or to have a garden. Many people live in cities where it is rare to have a garden. But even here there are wonderful possibilities for creating a little paradise of one's own. Window-boxes and containers can be used to decorate window sills and balconies, and even flat roofs may be turned into roof gardens. People who work under stress long for colorful, fragrant surroundings where they can relax when they get home. But beware: flowers and plants grown in containers on balconies and terraces require growing conditions and attention that are different from garden plants. This is because balconies and terraces are micro-climates in themselves. So they need particular plants requiring special care and training. Pest control is another important aspect of growing plants on balconies and terraces. This book provides answers and gives advice and tips on all these points, as well as illustrating the 500 plants that are particularly suitable for growing on balconies and terraces. Clear symbols make it quick and easy for the reader to interpret information, while the 350 color photographs give a foretaste of the wonderful feast of color that will reward the enthusiastic gardener.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Tr. from German to English; 408 p., clean and unmarked anywhere; many gorgeous photos; binding tight; flawless photographic reinforced boards perfectly protected by glossy matching d.j., itself witho discernible wear.
