First published in 1917, this vintage book contains a beginner-friendly guide to garden frames-wooden enclosures for plants that often have lids and enable the growing of some plants all year round. It offers useful information on the different types of frames that can be used and constructed, as well as how they can be utilised, their benefits, which types of plants can be grown in them and why, and much more. "The Garden Frame - How to Make the Most of it" will appeal to gardeners and allotment owners, and it would make for a fantastic addition to gardening collections. Contents include: "The Garden Frame", "How to Make a Hotbed", "Vegetables in Autumn and Winter", "Vegetables in Spring", "Fruits and Vegetables in Summer", "Flowering Plants in Autumn", "Flowering Plants in Spring", "Flowering Plants in Summer", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
