Synopsis

This book shares the author's expertise in cultivating fruits in glass structures, by using simple wooden houses over conventional glass ones. A popular practice in the 1800s, the author offers plans for constructing fruit-growing spaces that provide the ideal environment for fruit trees. Not only does the author share his designs, but also his own experiences on the subject covering topics such as how to care for trees, the type of trees that grow best in these spaces, and how to prevent issues such as pests and diseases. This book provides both the theoretical and practical knowledge for growing high-quality fruit in specially designed glass houses.
