The Kew Gardener's Guide to Growing Herbs

The Art and Science to Grow Your Own Herbs

Holly Farrell

Description

The Kew Gardener's Guide to Growing Herbs is an exquisite reference for beginners and enthusiasts who want to grow herbs beautifully. Combines practical advice, 12 easy to follow projects and choice illustrations from the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew archive.

Eighty of the most important and exciting herbs are identified, illustrated and their uses explained. This is accompanied by 12 projects which show how to develop a herb garden and use herbs in the most interesting and creative ways, from planting a herb roof to making herbal oils.

Herbs can be used as seeds, flowers or leaves; cooked and eaten themselves or used to infuse a dish or drink. They are high-value ingredients for foraged dishes, and must-have crops for the best restaurants as chefs realise that often the only way to capture their elusive flavour is to grow and harvest fresh herbs on their doorstep. With this book these intense flavours can now be a reality for gardeners and home-cooks with any size of garden, from an acre to a window box.
