This book is all you need to start your garden transformation. Henry is so knowledgeable and thinks outside the box - pure garden magic! - Zoe Ball
The Weekend Gardener is your beginner's DIY guide to creating your dream garden.
Henry Agg created his garden while working full time, proving that you can too! Now a qualified garden designer, Henry shares his knowledge for the busy gardener who doesn't know where to begin.
Broken down into four key stages, easy-to-follow step-by-step projects and bite-sized seasonal tasks walk you through how to:
- PLAN your design, considering aspect, look and feel, and budget
- BUILD paths, steps, patios, walls, and fences; as well as plant supports, such as pergolas and raised beds; and even a calming water feature
- PLANT trees, hedges, herbaceous plants, bulbs, and lay turf
- MAINTAIN your dream garden so it keeps looking good - and you feeling good - all year round.
With estimates of how long jobs will take - from an hour or so to a full weekend - so you can plan your time, The Weekend Gardener has all the gardening essentials you need to get started.
