This acknowledged classic is really two books in one, and the only guide anyone aspiring to own a greenhouse will ever need. First, there’s complete coverage on designing, constructing, and managing a greenhouse, with information on site selection, materials, heating, environmental control, and soil sterilization. Then a comprehensive gardening manual provides detailed advice on choosing, caring for, and cultivating the actual plants, whether they’re luscious tomatoes under glass or exotic orchids. Illustrated with diagrams and photographs that explain each topic, this invaluable, inspirational source of ideas and techniques features everything from inception to harvest; the latest information on modern greenhouse methods and materials; and essential advice on controlling greenhouse pests, diseases, and other disorders. Every plant is included: vegetables, fruits, pot plants, shrubs, flowers, bulbs, cacti, ferns, orchids, alpines, and more. Copyright 2003.
