==============================================
Home grown fruit - the delicious succulence of a freshly picked plum, the pride in a pot of home-made pickle or jam, the exuberance of spring-flowering peaches, cherries and apricots. Because so many fruits are easily grown and require little space, these pleasures are accessible to us all, often regardless of whether our "plot" is a small balcony, an inner city courtyard or a rooftop.
In this complete guide the authors give practical advice on the choice of the best varieties to suit climate and soil conditions, on pruning and fertilising techniques to ensure the maximum crop, on pest control, on tra ining methods so that vines and trees may be grown in pots or a limited space and on when to harvest and how to store your crop.
In addition, there's a persuasion of mouth watering recipes including all methods of preserving fruit and its use in luscious jams, piquant chutneys, sauces and pickles, and many delicious entrees, desserts, sweets and drinks - even wines.
Fruit for the Home and Garden will be a delightful and indispensable addition to any home.
