The Weekend Gardener

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

DIY projects, planting advice, and seasonal jobs for the time-poor gardener.

The Weekend Gardener is your beginner's DIY guide to creating your dream garden.

Henry Agg created his garden while working full time, proving that you can too! Now a qualified garden designer, Henry shares his knowledge for the busy gardener who doesn't know where to begin.

Broken down into four key stages, easy-to-follow step-by-step projects and bite-sized seasonal tasks walk you through how to:

  • PLAN your design, considering aspect, look and feel, and budget.
  • BUILD paths, steps, patios, walls, and fences; as well as plant supports, such as pergolas and raised beds; and even a calming water feature.
  • PLANT trees, hedges, herbaceous plants, bulbs, and lay turf.
  • MAINTAIN your dream garden so it keeps looking good - and you feeling good - all year round.

With estimates of how long jobs will take - from an hour or so to a full weekend - so you can plan your time, The Weekend Gardener has all the gardening essentials you need to get started.

About the Author

Henry Agg trained as a horticulturalist with the Royal Horticultural Society and in garden design at The English Gardening School. Before setting up his own garden design practice, Henry built a career on the corporate ladder, following his passion for gardening in his spare time. During that time, he established @henryagg on Instagram and shared how he transformed his garden while working full time and juggling family life. Henry passionately believes in the restorative benefits of gardening for mental wellbeing and proactively uses his platform to spread this message. Since becoming a garden designer, he has presented on Gardeners' World and Alan Titchmarsh's Gardening Club.
