Collins Easy Patios and Small Gardens is aimed at those who may only have a small garden area, but want to make the most of it -- whatever the nature of their outdoor area -- whether a small garden, patio, terrace or alleyway. Collins Easy Patios and Small Gardens will show you how to create a verdant, lush haven to escape to, even in the middle of a busy city. Packed with ideas on how to create a range of gardens to suit your space and needs, its emphasis is on the rewards and pleasures of gardening, and how to get impressive results quickly and easily. Written in a lively, chatty style, by two prominent, popular gardening writers, the book's down-to-earth and deliberately non-technical approach will appeal to the majority of gardeners, especially those with limited time who need a little encouragement to get into gardening.
