This vintage gardening how-to contains a wealth of timeless information and expert tips that will allow you to create a beautiful outdoor space that is truly your own. From markets gardens to villa ground, it has tips on transforming and landscaping outdoor plots of all sizes. Contents include: ¿On Laying Out Small Plots of Ground, from a perch to an Acre in Extent¿, ¿On Laying out Villa Grounds, from one Acre to one hundred Acres in Extent¿, ¿On the Formation and Arrangement of Kitchen Gardens¿, ¿On Parterres and Flower Gardens¿, ¿On Laying out Green, Labyrinths, and Plantations¿, ¿On the Construction of Hot Houses and Hot Walls¿, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.
