I recently completed “Modern Container Gardening” by Isabelle Palmer. I’m starting a bunch of seeds this year and since I have a small space, I wanted to up my container game. The book is a “how to” create a stylish small space garden anywhere. The book is split into two parts.
Part 1: “The Basics” which covers things such as: useful tools and equipment, gardening terms; and essentials i.e., choosing a plant, sun requirements, and how to read a plant tag. This was the first gardening book that broke this down and it was really appreciated. Part 2: Floral arrangements and DIY projects for at home containers such as: suspended hanging baskets, pantone living colour planters, and ombre herb pots to name a few. The book is an easy read and not too complicated. Pros:
Cons:
Overall, this is a good read and resource for those looking at ideas for container arrangements for a patio, balcony, or small garden space.
