Description

Originally part of "The Smallholder's Pocket Guides" series, this volume contains a simple guide to growing fruit in a garden or on a smallholding. "Home-Grown Fruit" contains simple, clear instructions and useful photographs intended to inform the reader about the simplest and most effective methods of producing fruit, with a particular focus on year-round care and maintenance.

Contents include: "Fruit from your Garden", "Selecting the Fruit to Suit your Purpose", "Some Popular Fruit Varieties", "Modern Soft Fruit Varieties", "How to Plant a Fruit Tree or Bush", "After Planting Soft Fruit Trees", "These Fruits are Cut Back Hard", "Also Blackberries", "Below are the Soft Fruits to Tip", "Some Special Matters of Good Management", etc.

Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.

It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
