Pots for All Seasons

In Pots for all Seasons, gardening guru Tom Harris shows you how to combine pots to make a container garden and how to rearrange and replace them so that the display is always lively and appealing. He covers every aspect, including: Collecting pots: the different types and styles of pots, their advantages and disadvantages and how to choose between them. What to grow: the plants, divided into those that play a permanent role and temporary "visitors." Making pictures: how to arrange and compose pots to show them off at their best. A gallery of inspiration: page after page of glorious container plantings, some themed (e.g., seaside, woodland), some simply a celebration of the season, all displaying the freshness and relaxed charm that makes them different. Planting for success: how to plant up your pots and maintain the plantings so they are always in top condition.

Hooked on growing plants since the age of eight, Tom Harris has been creating gardens professionally, and sharing his infectious enthusiasm for all things green, for more than twenty-five years. He has a particular passion for growing plants in small spaces, especially in containers.
