This volume aims to take the mystery out of successful planting by describing what conditions plants need in terms of soil and location to ensure healthy growth. There is a comprehensive explanation of the different types of soil and how to analyse it and recommendations for plants that will grow happily in them. It also contains information on plants that will grow in different locations including aspect, windy positions, and from shady to sunny sites.
Jackie Matthews works as a freelance writer and editor specialising in gardening and DIY. She has worked on dozens of gardening books covering all aspects of growing plants and garden creation.
