This new book is already a Sunday Times Bestseller! It’s a compelling call to change the way we think about gardening and growing food. Nettles and Petals is a great guide to help make your garden more sustainable.
Full of essential information and inviting imagery, this accessible guide provides a holistic and ecological approach to gardening and vegetable growing. With a focus on biodiversity, soil health, and the creation of balanced ecosystems, Nettles and Petals is a must-read for any budding gardener.
I have followed the author Jamie Walton on Instagram @NettlesAndPetals for a long time and I love the way he mixes flowers and vegetables together and his mission to save the wild plants in our gardens and learn how to begin growing them in your spaces in a practical way.
He covers so many topics including:
- Companion planting
- The wonders of nettles and other weeds
- The importance of flowers in the vegetable garden
- Circular and ecological garden planning
- Growing guides for Jamie’s ‘top 30’ vegetables
- Seed saving and sowing
- Urban and small-scale sustainable gardening
- Harvesting, preserving, and sharing produce
I got this book for the shop as I really wanted to read it and learn from it myself. It’s the perfect treat for any keen gardeners and a great gift for any garden lovers in your life, Nettles and Petals is perfect for anyone curious about gardening sustainably.
