The Weekend Gardener by Henry Agg
- Description
A Better Garden by Sunday Night
No time to redesign the garden? Apparently, a weekend will do nicely.
The Weekend Gardener by award-winning garden designer Henry Agg is a brilliantly practical guide to creating the garden you want without feeling as though you've taken on a second full-time job.
Inspired by Henry's own experience of creating a garden while working full-time, it breaks everything down into realistic, manageable projects — some taking just an hour or two, others perfect for getting stuck into over a weekend.
Learn how to plan your space, choose the right plants and tackle practical projects including patios, paths, fences, pergolas and raised beds, with clear step-by-step advice and useful time estimates along the way.
There are ideas for starting from scratch as well as improving an existing garden, plus planting and seasonal advice to help keep everything looking good once the hard work is done.
Practical, encouraging and refreshingly achievable, it's a particularly good book for new homeowners, beginner gardeners and anyone currently staring out of the window thinking, “We really need to do something with the garden.”
