Description
Herbs have always played an important role in everyday life, be it for flavouring a meal or for restoring and maintaining good health. This guide shows you how to use herbs to their best advantage in the garden, home or greenhouse. The plant catalogue is a complete guide with at-a-glance reference to over 50 varieties of herbs and gives botanical descriptions, the height and spread of the plant, as well as information on culinary and medicinal uses. The grower's guide includes everything you need to know in order to cultivate herbs, from buying and selecting the best plants, to controlling pests and diseases.
