Teeny Tiny Gardening

Product Description

Teeny Tiny Gardening is horticulture on the smallest of scales. No matter how tiny your space
- indoor or outdoor, garden, yard, balcony or even just a windowsill or tabletop
- here you will find original, fun & inspiring ideas. The 35 projects range from an elegant fern terrarium & a scented spring bulb basket to colourful woven bags & hessian sacks filled with cheerful summer blooms. There are edible gardens, including fruit bushes planted in catering-sized kitchen pans & a vertical garden of herbs grown on a wooden stepladder. You will find lots of ideas for using recycled & salvaged containers, such as a metal bathtub filled with vegetable plants, metal food tins used for an indoor garden of wildflowers & a stack of wooden drawers filled with trailing plants. & at the teeniest end of the scale, there are even miniature tabletop gardens created in eggshells & bottle tops! Children can learn basic gardening skills, too, by following the step-by-step photos to make their own magical fairy garden or a mysterious dinosaur den. Whether you are looking for ideas for all-year foliage or for a summer display of flowers, wanting to grow your own veggies & herbs, or needing to revamp your balcony, Teeny Tiny Gardening will provide you with all the inspiration & practical knowledge you need.
