birds and butterflies and the other wildlife which come
into our garden, etc. The Green Garden Expert sets out
what you need to know in order to look after your
garden.It also shows you how to care for wildlife, the
environment and your own well-being.Whether you decide
upon a completely organic approach or prefer to take
just a few steps along the environmentally-friendly
road, The Green Garden Expert explains the options.It
shows you how to choose the right plants for the right
place, and how to plant and care for flowers, trees,
shrubs, fruit, vegetables and wild flowers.It shows you
how to tackle weeds, pests and other problems, how to

which occur every year. ''It's not only for organic
gardeners - it is for everyone who wants an up-to-date
general gardening guide with the environment in
mind.There is information on safety as well as sowing,
on birds and butterflies as well as beans'' - Dr
