Whizz, I'd be interested in the gardening year book but I need it to be very simple, very clear instructions . Is that what it's like or does it go into soil ph etc?

rosmerta - flicking through it, there is a chapter for each month - it tells you want can be planted in that month, what flowers etc, it also has a bit about shrubs & lots of pics showing you what the flowers look like. There isn't much on basic gardening techniques & I can't see anything about testing your soil pH

Just weighed it & it would be £1.92 to send 2nd class - call it £4 if you're interested
