Getting started on growing your own fruit can seem daunting—as appealing as the thought may be—and many people are put off by a lack of knowledge and time. This no-nonsense book sets out to overcome these problems. With clear practical instructions and inspirational pictures, Clare Matthews demystifies the growing of fruit and shows that with the right approach, it can be done successfully on weekends or slotted into a busy week.
The book is packed with practical advice and shortcuts, from planning what to grow and companion planting to dealing with pests and diseases and no-dig gardening. Soft fruit, tree fruit, nuts and other fruit are all covered. The author explains simple short cuts, suggests unusual low maintenance strategies, and promotes a relaxed, robust attitude to growing-your-own that really works.
The beautiful photographs are by the acclaimed garden photographer Clive Nichols in Clare Matthew's own weekend fruit garden, where the principles promoted in this book have been tried, tested and proven. Filled with sound horticultural advice, the book is essential reading for time-poor gardeners who want to achieve maximum yields from their fruit gardens with minimum effort.

Pattern and texture is one of the most important design elements in any good landscape. In paved surfaces, on fences and walls, and in garden ornaments and accents, pattern and texture creates visual interest and adds a feeling of depth and dimension in the landscape. Depending on the type of design and the nature of the materials used, a pattern can be soothing and restful, or dramatic and eye-catching. This book is a comprehensive do-it-yourself guide to the use of pattern and mosaic in the garden. It includes more than 20 stylish projects, making use of a variety of materials, from traditional polished stone to broken glass. A variety of pathway and paving projects are included, but readers will also learn how to create mosaic treatments on planters, furniture and other garden accents. Garden Patterns &amp; Mosaics includes an opening introduction to the principles of using pattern in garden design, and a summary of the tools and techniques required.
