“Herb gardening in pots affords all the larger pleasures of gardening in microcosm. With skill, imagination and flair the results can be spectacular. In a book full of delights the author shares her thoughts on the history and cultivation of herbs as well as giving specific advice on propagation and training. Taking a decorative approach she reminds us that there may be no better Christmas tree than a pine scented rosemary topiary planted in an old rose pot. Instructions, recipes and fresh ideas for using herbs – spring wreaths, ointments, sachets, foods and presents – are all prettily illustrated with the author’s drawings.” Show more
