"Gardening with Peat Moss" is a classic guide to gardening, looking at
various simple methods of growing beautiful shrubs, flowers and trees in
private gardens and allotments. Concentrating on using peat moss to get
the best results from your garden, this is a guide that will be of
considerable utility to those with an interest in this method of
cultivation. Recommended for gardening enthusiasts and collectors of
vintage literature of this ilk. Contents include: "What Peat Moss Is,
and What It Brings To the Garden", "How Plants Grow: The All-Important
Function of Moisture", "Plants from Seeds and Cuttings", "Planting and
