With clear practical instructions and inspirational pictures, Clare Matthews demystifies the growing of fruit and shows that with the right approach, it can be done successfully on weekends or slotted into a busy week.

Soft fruit, tree fruit, nuts and other fruit are all covered. The author explains simple short cuts, suggests unusual low maintenance strategies, and promotes a relaxed, robust attitude to growing-your-own that really works. The beautiful photographs are by the acclaimed garden photographer Clive Nichols in Clare Matthew's own weekend fruit garden, where the principles promoted in this book have been tried, tested and proven. Filled with sound horticultural advice, the book is essential reading for time-poor gardeners who want to achieve maximum yields from their fruit gardens with minimum effort.
