The Vegetable & Herb Expert: The world's best-selling book on vegetables & herbs (Expert Series)

Product Information

Nicole W. One of the best books on vegetable gardens I have found so far. It helped a lot with planning our garden and in deciding what to plant and what to better leave. With that said, it is clearly aimed at UK-readers and with me living in Germany some of the information has to be 'interpreted' due to a slightly different climate. No problem, though.

Supplement this book with one on modern, reduced-chemical, techniques and you will know all the essentials for growing good vegetables even if, like me, you don't always put them into practice. Read less As said, coming from Northern Germany where curly kale is not just food but almost a religion, I was surprised to find that the author just stated that kale is not really worth growing since it tastes rather bitter. Which is true - UNLESS you do what we do in Germany and only harvest the kale after the first strong frost. It takes away the bitter taste and will be much nicer and milder to eat.
