About the Book

Discover what to do at just the right time to create a garden that's full of life and colour all year round.

Keeping on top of the best time to sow seeds, plant bulbs or get your pruning sheers out can be tricky for new and experienced gardeners with busy lives. What to Sow, Grow and Do offers a season-by-season guide to the garden, with projects, advice and ideas to help you plan your time and inspire your planting.

Tracking a year in the garden, it shows you what to do when in a series of straightforward how-tos and handy checklists. It also celebrates each season of the year, highlighting the plants in season, the wildlife to spot and the changes you can notice in the garden and beyond.

Seasonal tasks cover everything from sowing salad leaves to pruning roses, together with ideas on encouraging birds to nest, hedgehogs to hibernate and supporting a garden that's full of life. Armed with this book, you can create a thriving, flourishing garden that's a joy to be in. Each half season, the book will cover:
• Plants in seasons - what's coming into flower and in full bloom, to help you plan your gardening year
• Monthly tasks - a guide that includes what to sow, grow and do, plus a task list of jobs around the garden
• The seasons highlights - what to harvest, forage and look out for in the garden and beyond

Whether you are a seasoned horticulturalist or are just starting on your gardening adventure, this guide is an indispensable companion to your year in the garden.

Review :
"Ben not only has an innate understanding of how to grow, he knows how to draw the best from every season, and I think this book will quickly become an insightful gardening friend."  "This is a great, uplifting, intelligent and practical book full of sound advice for anyone wanting to garden, written by a talented and creative gardener." "Honest, useful, eminently readable and extremely beautiful, this is a book filled with decades of hands-on knowledge. The words and photographs are sumptuous – you find yourself immersed in the possibilities of the seasons through pages brimming with ideas and personable, accessible ideas. In short, this lovely book will be a welcome all-seasons addition to my shelf. It's an absolute delight."
