The Complete Gardener

First published in Great Britain in 2003 by Dorling Kindersley Limited.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A new edition of Monty's most highly illustrated practical reference, thoroughly updated to reflect how he gardens today, with over half of the photos shot at Longmeadow in the last year.

Even great gardeners like Monty Don are always learning and always experimenting.

This extensively revised new edition of his Complete Gardener, first published in 2003, brings you right up-to-date on how Monty gardens today— and his recommendations for you.

The most comprehensive, practical, and highly illustrated book Monty has ever written, it covers what he believes are the most important aspects of gardening. Organic techniques have always been at the core of his practice, but this new edition picks up on another key principle—the need to provide habitats in your garden for local wildlife.

The vast majority of photographs in this revised edition will be new, and all text scrutinised and updated to reflect his latest approach.
