This vintage volume contains a comprehensive guide to growing fruit, with information on fertilisation, planting, pruning, nutrition, pests and diseases, and much more. Full of simple instructions and written in plain language, this book is highly recommended for those with little previous experience, and would make for a great addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Treating the Soil and Feeding the Trees", "How to Plan and Plant", "Pruning, What it Means and Does", "The Types of Trees you can Buy", "When to Pick and How to Store", "Keeping the Pests and Diseases Away", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing "Fruit Growing For Beginners" now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on growing fruit.
