Greenhouse and Window Plants - A Primer for Amateurs e-bog

First published in 1895, this vintage book offers the reader a beginner-friendly guide to growing plants in greenhouses and under glass. Written in simple, plain language and profusely-illustrated, this step-by-step guide is ideal for novice gardeners with an interest in greenhouses, and it would make for a useful addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "e;The Construction of Greenhouses"e;, "e;Heating and General Management"e;, "e;Appliances and Materials"e;, Methods of Propagating Plants"e;, "e;Potting, Watering, Training, and Feeding Plants"e;, "e;Spring and Summer Flowering Plants"e;, "e;Autumn and Winter Flowering Plants"e;, "e;Bulbous and Tuberous-rooted Plants"e;, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
