Create your own small garden with expert gardener Joe Swift. Green spaces are the perfect antidote to fast city living. Learn how to create your own small garden with expert gardener Joe Swift's practical, easy-to-follow advice. From courtyards to rooftops, transform awkward and unexciting spaces with inspirational ideas and solutions. Whatever you want your green space to look like and be used for, Joe's no-nonsense approach guides you through issues such as privacy, boundaries and shade, to growing plants in areas with little to no soil.

The plants will increase biodiversity, and many will be an important year-round resource for wildlife. In this book, Joe covers a vast range of exciting, impactful and innovative ways to stamp your personality on your outdoor space. He demonstrates how to use paving, boundaries, containers, furniture, water and sculpture to help structure and define, and how to give the starring role to the plants you choose to draw the seasons into our towns and cities. Joe Swift is an author, TV presenter and garden designer. He makes regular appearances on BBC's Gardener's World and the RHS Flower Shows

Hydroponics (Latin for "working water") is the practice of growing flowers or edible plants using water instead of soil. When people think of hydroponics they usually envision huge greenhouse-type commercial enterprises with lab-coated scientists wandering about making adjustments. But hydroponics is actually very simple and a growing number of people are gardening and farming in their homes using hydroponics. Some of these farmers turned their hobby of hydroponic farming into profitable enterprises.

Infinite Succulent - Miniature Living Art to Keep or Share (Hardcover): Rachael Cohen Infinite Succulent - Miniature Living Art to Keep or Share (Hardcover)
Rachael Cohen
R551 Discovery Miles 5 510 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

From blue- green to purple and pink, flower-shaped to squat and spiky or tall and fuzzy, the variety, versatility, and low-maintenance care of succulents makes them go-to plants for home gardeners. Here, succulent stylist Rachael Cohen shows that these traits also make succulents the ideal material for living art. Tiny, jewel-like succulents can be clipped and replanted in infinite combinations, and unlike cut flowers, they thrive in these arrangements. When planted in corks, they become charming living magnets; when placed in seashells, they are a delightful reminder of a day at the beach. Succulents can also grow nestled in moss, creating an opportunity for even more creativity: arrange them atop mini pumpkins or adorn a headband or a tiny wreath. In addition to illustrated step-by-step instructions for more than a dozen crafts, Cohen explains which succulents are best for each project, how to clip and prepare rosettes and leaves, and what to do when the plants outgrow their art pieces. Lush photographs throughout capture the natural beauty of the plants and boundless range of possible creations.
