Publisher's Synopsis
Gardening books have long suffered from being aimed solely at a middle-aged audience, yet there is a whole generation of home-owners aged 25-40 who have acquired gardens but are practically ignored by traditional gardening publishing.
In this book Monty Don, popular TV gardener and columnist, breaks the mould and demonstrates that gardening can be fun, stylish and exciting; an integrated part of modern life rather than a ghettoised, old-fashioned hobby. Evenly balanced between practical advice for a first-time gardener, and inspirational ideas to stimulate a passion for plants, URBAN JUNGLE is stunningly designed and illustrated with beautiful full-colour photos. Focused particularly, though not exclusively, on small, urban spaces, this is a must-have for every new gardener.
