This early work is a fascinating read for any gardening enthusiast or historian, but contains much information that is still useful and practical today. It is a thoroughly recommended title for the amateur or professional horticulturalist and arborist's shelf. Contents Include: Capital Required and Terms of Tenure; Selection and Preparation of Land; Wiring: Marking Out: Distances Apart: Planting; Shape and Age of Tree; Stocks; Varieties of Apples; Varieties of Pears, Plums and Cherries; Varieties of Soft Fruits; Pollination; Soil Cultivation and Manuring; Pruning; Pests and Diseases; Spraying Appliances and Costs; Re-Heading and Top-Grafting: Ringing; Thinning, Supporting and Picking of Fruit; Grading, Sizing and Packing; marketing; Finance and Records; Dwarf Pyramids and Cordons; Storage; Labour; Calendar of Operations; and Index. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
