The city garden bible : simple solutions for small spaces

City living need no longer mean gazing longingly at the gardens of our country neighbours, for Matt James, the City Gardener, is here to show us how to transform even the most modest patch of land into a heaven on earth.

Focusing specifically on the issues that most concern urban gardeners - such as pollution, privacy, security and shade - this comprehensive guide has everything you will ever need to recreate your very own private paradise on the most windswept of balconies or the darkest of backyards.

All types of urban spaces are discussed, as are the specific plants and maintenance techniques you can use to make your particular garden a success.

Fuelled by Matt James' passionate love for plants and growing them in an urban setting, this book could change your life!
