Description

Grow up, not out! Are you a gardener (or aspiring gardener) who is short on space? Vertical methods and structures for growing plants are an ideal way to maximize your real estate, and they're eye-catching, too. Vertical solutions deliver more yield in fewer square feet, especially perfect for the urban gardener. They're less work, too, so you can forget all-day weeding and watering. Some vegetables, such as tomatoes and pole beans, have been grown vertically for a very long time, but those who need to maximize space can grow almost any type of plant vertically-from melons and squash to carrots, peppers, and pears. Vertical growing isn't just practical, it's beautiful, too! Trellises, terra cotta towers, and hanging planters (to name a few!) transform an outdoor space into a magical garden. Vertical Vegetable Gardening is your thorough guide for growing all types of leafy, root, and other vegetables vertically. Included in the book are: • Creative ideas for structures and containers that will save you space, including DIY projects and repurposing suggestions • Profiles on dozens of plant varieties, including planting, tending, and harvesting instructions • How to make your own garden bed • Soil, seed, and gardening basics • Pest control guidance
