Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Gardening for Pleasure: A Guide to the Amateur in the Fruit, Vegetable, and Flower Garden, With Full Directions for the Greenhouse, Conservatory, and Window-Garden
My aim in writing the book was to make it such as would be useful to the occupant of a city lot, or to the possessor of a few window plants, as well as to the owner of a country residence that is fully appointed in all mat ters relating to the cultivation of ?owers, fruits, and vegetables. The necessity for such a book has been made evident to me by the inquiries from hundreds of ama teurs in gardening; inquiries to many of which neither of my previous works, Gardening for Profit, or Practical furnished proper replies; the one being written mainly for information of the vegetable market gardener, and the other for the commercial ?orist.
