In this book Lawrence D. Hills covers the whole field of garden
planning, landscaping, wall and path construction, the growing of
flowers, shrubs, trees, hedges, alpines and lawns. Entirely
realistic, he knows all about badly sited garages, disappointing
loads of turf, inherited piles of building rubble, and the many
snags and obstacles besetting suburban gardeners. Nor does he
forget that the garden is also a children's playground,
window-cleaner's base and domain of cars and clothes lines. 'A
basic and eminently practical book about gardens - ordinary
gardens, such as are owned by thousands of people all over Britain.
The emphasis is on flowers, lawns and the leisure areas, with their
roses, annuals, perennials and bulbs. There is advice on what to
grow in a small garden - particularly important with trees and
shrubs - and guidance on cultivation, propagation and the
prevention of pests and diseases, for which the author has some
unusual recipes.' Frances Perry, Observer
