Whether you have a sprawling plot, a small courtyard or a single balcony, this 256-page guide breaks every task into clear, manageable steps, giving nervous first-timers the confidence to get their hands dirty and start growing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPublished by DK in association with the Royal Horticultural Society, this handbook is built specifically for people who have never gardened before and don't know where to start. It opens by helping you assess your outdoor space — working out soil type, light levels and drainage — before moving through planting lawns, hedges, trees, shrubs and flowers, and growing your own fruit, vegetables and herbs. A dedicated Practicalities chapter covers the maintenance jobs every new gardener needs to master, including pruning, composting, watering, weeding and dealing with common pests and diseases. Throughout, the RHS's trusted, evidence-based advice is paired with DK's clear photography, diagrams and step-by-step visual instructions, so you always know exactly what to do next and why. Rather than overwhelming beginners with everything at once, the book is structured to build skills gradually — starting with quick wins that deliver visible results, then layering in the knowledge needed for long-term success. It's an ideal companion for anyone taking on a new-build garden, inheriting an overgrown plot, or simply wanting to finally get their houseplants and containers thriving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear, jargon-free explanations of soil types, light conditions and drainage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep-by-step projects for planting lawns, hedges, shrubs, flowers and edibles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA full Practicalities chapter on pruning, composting, watering and pest control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrusted RHS expertise combined with DK's signature visual, easy-to-follow layout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect first reference for new-build gardens, allotments, balconies and containers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) is the UK's leading gardening charity, dedicated to sharing the best in gardening and helping people grow.
