Description
|
|
|
|
Explaining the challenges of growing edible plants in a hot, dry climate, Spain's leading organic gardener provides practical information on how to grow vegetables, fruit, and herbs in Mediterranean latitudes. "The tending of a garden, whether big or small, can offer us a better quality of life," says Mariano Bueno. "Applying organic principles we can maintain and improve soil fertility, grow healthy, vigorous plants and make pleasant spaces." Illustrated on nearly every page, this guide describes the kitchen garden through the year. "I like the Bueno style and his plant associations and rotations are just as valid [elsewhere] as in the Mediterranean. He seems very much at home with the plants he describes. Rosemary, he says, 'generates a good presence.' Yes. That's it exactly."—Independent (London)
