| seeds: the definitive guide to growing, history & lore Peter Loewer
Much of life on earth begins with seeds, and on a more humble level, every garden and gardener depends on seeds to provide beauty and nourishment. From the practical concerns of seed raisers and collectors to the ancient lore, history and biology of seeds, Peter Loewer has written a remarkable book for anyone interested in the life of plants and the planet. With a focus on the concerns of gardeners, Peter Loewer provides detailed advice on buying, storing and germinating, sterilizing soil, indoor to outdoor transplanting - even building cold frames. Blending science and hands-on experience, 'Seeds' is the rare gardening book that is as useful as it is fascinating to read. 229pp
