Urban Eden: Grow Delicious Fruit, Vegetables and Herbs ...

James is not a professional gardener, nor is he someone with plenty of time on his hands, but last year he grew enough herbs, fruit, vegetables, and salad greens in his garden to eat something home-grown and totally fresh almost every day. In fact, it's a very small but lush patch of soil in the heart of a city. Urban Eden shows that a garden can be productive as well as ornamental, that it can thrive on a windowsill, and that edibles need not be exiled to the vegetable patch. Every aspect of urban gardening is addressed, from choosing a suitable design to dealing with wildlife. Complete with a plant directory, recipes, and 200 color photos.
