If, like me, you need an allotment book which assumes you know v little, but have already made the decision to work an allotment, don't necessarily put this book at the top of your list. i didn't need a chapter telling me why people have allotments. i didn't need recipes. i didn't need to know that someone has been labeled "the queen of herbs" by jamie oliver. i didn't need a page on bees. i need a book that allows me to look up raspberries, rhubarb, potatoes, courgettes, or whatever, and be directed to a page with everything i needed to know about those fruits/vegetables, plus a section that outlines everything i need to plan for each season. the latter section is here, and it is *almost* acceptable, but it assumes too much prior knowledge. ...

I got this with the 3D Garden Designer software and I actually refer to the book ten times more than I do to the CD. It has lots of tips arranged month by month. I find myself reading next month's chapter to see what new things I might grow or what existing plants need attention.

This booked is crammed full of good information. It's an A-Z with all the regular info - flowering time, size, care, position etc. What I really like is the little shadow pictures demonstrating the profile of the plant and the little 'umbrella' signs denoting moist, dry or heavy shade. Really useful and a compliment to other, more detailed tomes.
