Publisher's Synopsis

Make the most of every part of your garden with guidance on what to grow where from expert gardener, Lucy Chamberlain.

Discover the seven different zones that you can find in your garden, from sunny and sheltered through to shady and dry - as well as using indoor space. Each zone offers a different environment for plants with different growing conditions.


Following the principle of "right crop, right place", everyone can grow fruits and vegetables that will thrive in their space, large or small. Including varieties of vegetables, fruits, herbs, and edible flowers, there is something here for everyone - from favourites like chilis and figs to honeyberry, wasabi, agretti, and amaranth.

Learn how to identify and map the zones of your space, make the most of the natural conditions, collect water, use a greenhouse effectively, and understand the basics of what's happening in the soil. With photographs of crops, diagrams of each zone, and a trouble-shooter guide to managing plant problems, this book will truly enable gardeners to grow food anywhere.
