  • A great addition to my gardening books, slightly tarnished by the notes written in the book by a previous owner. Overall though really pleased

  • Very good and informative, easily understood just like others in the Dr. D. G. Hessayon series of books.

    I have six other second hand books in this series and they all cost less than this one but I was glad to get it for £4.99 as a few weeks ago the same book was selling for £50+.

  • Brilliant guide

    I work as a gardener, and over the last twenty years I have often bought this book for new clients when they are venturing into vegetable gardening for the first time. It is a easy and clearly laid out book that makes growing veggies simple. Highly recommend.

  • Good book, good value for money.

    I was really pleased with my Vegetable Expert book. I keep it at my allotment for easy reference. Because it was so cheap I don't mind if I thumb through the pages with muddy fingers.

  • Straight to the point

    If you only buy one gardening book in your life this is the one. Concise and straight to the point, everything you need to know and nothing you don't. A total beginner could grow vegetables successfully with this simple information. I still refer to it for planting times, spacing etc.

  • Great book,easy to understand and it is a must

    Extremely informative, every thing you'll need to successfully grow vegetables. However it is a bit dated as many of the more modern varieties are not shown. Still it is a great buy, I got one for my daughter who is into growing her own produce.
