Let’s Start Gardening by Reg Botha (10/10 Gardening #2) (Paperback)

A range of practical gardening subjects is covered in these compact books designed to be conveniently carried while tending to your garden. The inspiration for this series came from the author’s extensive visits and lecture tours to gardening clubs all over the country.

However, despite these challenges, almost every town in South Africa boasts beautiful gardens. This series aims to motivate and empower nationwide gardeners with the knowledge and expertise needed to cultivate their own stunning gardens.

Each book distills the secrets of successful gardening into ten fundamental principles.
