How to grow delicious fruit in your very own garden, patio or balcony.
Fantastic fruit you can grow yourself. From ripe berries bursting with juice, to apples, plums or cherries, it's easy to grow your own fruit, no matter how little room you have. Follow foolproof, step-by-step advice and all the practical know-how you need to fill your fruit bowl with home-grown produce. Choose from more than 50 different crops - from apples to strawberries and walnuts to whitecurrants. Use the quick-reference year planner to work out when to plant, prune and harvest and master the easy-to-follow techniques for all levels of expertise and every type of growing space - from allotments and greenhouses to patios and roof terraces. You don't need green fingers to grow great fruit.
Grow Fruit is packed with illustrated step-by-step sequences explaining the basics of planting, pruning and training. There is a wealth of clear, practical advice for the beginner gardener, as well as expert tips and techniques for more experienced fruit growers.
This book is a UK publication, so the seasonal planners will need to be adjusted by six months to allow for hemispheric changes.

He has over 20 years experience in illustrated publishing, both as an editor and as an author, and has worked on countless information books, interactive CD-ROMS and websites. In recent years he has written chiefly about gardening and photography, his two main interests.
