Synopsis
This book is dedicated to the cultivation of the grape vine. It is written by an expert horticulturist with years of experience growing grapes in commercial greenhouses and stately homes. The book contains valuable insights into the history, science, and art of grape growing, ranging from the best varieties and how to select them, to instructions on soil preparation, planting techniques, and pest management. It also includes information on the vine's suitability as a decorative rather than purely horticultural asset. Acknowledging the antiquity of the species, the author emphasizes that the vine is one of the oldest cultivated plants, with references to its role in culture and mythology from the time of the ancient Greeks and Egyptians to the present day.
