Organized as a garden calendar/planner it describes week-by-week tasks in each month. Benefit from Mr Cundall's vast knowledge and experience. This book is indeed very practical. ( ) Useful for garden dabblers like myself because content is positioned by month, broken down into weeks. So the reader can simply go to that month to find out what they need to plan for and plant in the garden at any week of the year. Nice conversational style. I've seen him occasionally on ABC so 'hear' his voice throughout the book. Minor dislike - the typographical layout at the start of each chapter has one short paragraph running across the page, then with no horizontal gap, breaks the rest of the page into two columns. Irritating as I frequently lost my train of thought and had to start each section again. Better than many others I've read recently which appear to not realise that Australia has: a) different climate in different parts of Australia; and b) is nothing like England (thus does not need cloching instructions in detail but finds drought-resistant planting and watering advice more useful, which this book does well). Useful descriptions on many plants commonly seen and available in Australia. I've selfishly renewed this book twice from the library as I get ready for spring planting, so will return it this weekend and buy my own copy soon. One question: What is winter oil ? Apparently something useful to use according to this book but I've never seen it around. Feel free to comment me if you know what it is I should look for. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
