The Well-Tempered Garden: A New Edition Of The Gardening Classic Paperback – February 1, 2003
Christopher Lloyd (Author)
A classic work by Britain’s most highly respected plantsman, updated for the 21st Century.This is the classic work by a gardener who combines a passionate love of his subject with a critical intelligence and a good helping of wit. THE WELL-TEMPERED GARDEN is packed with the sort of information keen gardeners crave – from planting, weeding and the pleasures of propagation to annuals, water-lilies and worthwhile vegetables. Hailed as ‘a really important addition to horticultural literature’ when it was first published, THE WELL-TEMPERED GARDEN is as fresh and enlightening, and as entertaining, for gardeners in the 21st century as when it first appeared more than thirty years ago.
