Description
This early work is a fascinating read for any gardening enthusiast or historian, but contains much information that is still useful and practical today. It is a thoroughly recommended title for the amateur or professional arborist or horticulturalist's shelf. Illustrated with 8 plates, 60 photographs and many diagrams. Contents Include: General Considerations; Soils in Relation to Fruit Growing; Manuring; Propagation of Fruit Trees and Bushes; Pruning; Forms of Fruit Trees; Forming and Training: The 'Delayed Open-Centre' Tree; Planning and Planting; Gathering and Storing Fruit; Marketing Fruit; Exhibiting at Commercial Fruit Shows; The Control of Pests and Diseases; The Culture of Particular Fruits; Fruit under Glass; Fruit Growing in Pots; The Culture of Particular Fruits under Glass. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
