Eating fruit is good for you and an essential part of your "five a day." Growing your own is even better.

The perfect companion book to Grow Your Own Vegetables (which sold 6,500 copies in its first two months of publication), Grow Your Own Fruit is the second offering from expert gardener Carol Klein. In this beautifully photographed book, she once again offers impeccable advice on growing the freshest, most nutritious and organic produce.

This time, Klein reveals the skills you need to nurture 40 different fruits from plot to plate. With her usual energy and enthusiasm, Klein offers green-thumbed advice for growing all your appetizing favorites as well as less familiar fruits such as lemons, figs, blueberries and cranberries. Her approach is environmentally friendly and easy.

Printed on wood-free matte paper, this book includes information on growing fruit in all environments … whether planting in a garden, communal plot, raised bed, container or window box. An ideal gift for beginners and experienced gardeners alike, this inspirational book is packed full of wisdom, making it an indispensable fruit reference for every gardener's bookshelf.
