About the Author

Yates is the number-one bestselling gardening brand in Australia and New Zealand. In 1895 Arthur Yates saw the need for a publication that answered gardeners' questions so he wrote the first Yates Garden Guide, a comprehensive gardening book that is still published more than 125 years later. Angie Thomas is a horticultural consultant to Yates, and is passionate about the health and benefits of gardening, and about teaching and inspiring people how to garden. She is also mad about growing food and filling her house with indoor plants and the scents from her garden.
