Healing Garden : An Introduction to Herbs

Herbs are an important but often neglected part of garden life.

Not only are these plants useful for their culinary, cosmetic, and medicinal properties, but they also make a delightful addition to any border and are usually very attractive to the insect, bird, and animal life we should be attracting into our gardens.

This introduction to herbs - now in a newly revised and expanded second edition - is the ideal guide for the beginner.

It is informative and easy to understand, giving sufficient pointers to further research without overwhelming the reader.
