Overview
This two-book gardening collection brings together two of DK's best-loved month-by-month guides. RHS Gardening Through the Year by Ian Spence covers every corner of the ornamental garden, while Allotment Month by Month by Alan Buckingham focuses on growing your own fruit and vegetables. Together they give gardeners of any experience level a full twelve-month calendar of tasks, tips, and expert know-how for both flower beds and food-growing plots, making this an ideal all-round reference set for the home gardener.
About the Books
RHS Gardening Through the Year is a comprehensive, official RHS guide that helps you plan your gardening year with confidence. Organised month by month, it tells you when to prune roses, when potatoes are ready to harvest, and how to keep a lawn looking its best. Each chapter includes handy "Last Chance" reminders and "Get Ahead" tips so nothing gets missed, along with beautiful photo galleries showcasing that month's "Star Plant". An A-Z illustrated plant directory featuring more than 350 varieties rounds out this trusted, practical reference.
Allotment Month by Month is the perfect companion for anyone growing their own fruit and vegetables, whether on a full allotment, a small plot, or even in a city garden. It explains exactly when to sow, how to cultivate, and how to manage pests responsibly, alongside step-by-step projects such as building your own compost bin. With more than 60 fruit and vegetable crop planners and monthly pest and disease alerts, this book is designed to help you achieve a reliable, high-quality harvest season after season, whatever your level of experience.
