Written for gardeners of all skill levels, this book highlights the best varieties of both top and soft fruit for growing at home or in a community garden or allotment. Drawing on over 50 years of horticultural experience, Chris Whitelock delivers straightforward, practical guidance based on modern gardening techniques.
