"The Little Garden" is a vintage guide to gardening designed for people
with small gardens or allotments. It offers the reader information on
what the best plants for smallholdings are, with details on when and
where to plant, propagation, hybrids, planting, cutting, and much more.
This guide contains a wealth of timeless information and is perfect for
the modern green-fingered enthusiasts with limited space. Contents
include: "Memories of an Old Garden", "Hedges", "The Lawn", "Ornamental
Trees for the Little Garden", "Shrubs", "Climbing Plants", "Roses", "The
Flower Garden", "Herbaceous Plants for the Little Garden", "Hardy Hybrid
Herbaceous Plants", "Raising Plants from Sees", "Hardy Bulbs", etc. Many
vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is
with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an
affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a
specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
