This early work is a fascinating read for any gardening enthusiast
or historian and contains much information and anecdote that is
still useful and practical today. Illustrated with text and full
page photographs. Contents Include: Part I - Why Manures and
Fertilisers are Required - The Foundation of Plant Nutrition; The
Soil and the Plant; The Different manures and Fertilisers; The
General Principles of Manure and Fertiliser Application; Part II -
Formulae of Special Manures and Fertilisers - Fruit; Vegetables;
Food Crops under Glass; Garden Flowers; Pot Plants and Flowers
Indoors; Roses and Other Flowering Shrubs; Lawns; and Index. Many
of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s
and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We
are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality,
modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
